Book excerpt: Excerpt from For the Freedom of the Seas Boston to Havre, but once rid of her cargo of lubricating oil for the armies in France, she had been forced to swing at anchor for two weeks. At last, despairing Of a fair wind, Captain Troy had had the schooner towed across to F almouth, England. Another wait had followed, a delay especially regrettable when ships were scarce and freight rates high. But at last a brisk breeze had started the Jonas Clinton on her homeward voy age only to peter out at the end of the second day, leaving the skipper, who, as half owner in the ship, was deeply concerned in her fortunes, decidedly glum. The skipper's frame Of mind was reflected by everyone else aboard, from Mr. Cupples, the mate, down to the latest addition to the crew Of eight, the tall, raw-boned Nova sco tian lad who, whatever his real name might be, was known as Bean Pole though the gloom extended in a lesser degree to two inhabitants of the four hundred ton craft, Nelson Troy and Pickles. These two were at the moment seated side by side on the forward hatch, as though awaiting this introduction. Nelson, Captain Troy's son, was seventeen, a well-built, nice-looking lad who was making his second voyage in his father's ship.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Mare Liberum: The Freedom of the Seas So much has been, and is being, said and written about the freedom of the seas, especially in Germany and America, that it is worth while to consider what various meanings the phrase may bear, and what has already been done or attempted towards establishing and maintaining this freedom for the world. The freedom of the seas obviously means the right of the peaceful merchant vessels of all nations to go to and fro upon the seas of the world, free from all perils or restrictions save those of the winds and the waves. It rests upon the doctrine of international law which asserts that, outside territorial waters, the seas are the property of no State, but equally open to all. It may be infringed in either of two ways - either by the assertion of monopoly or the imposition of restrictions by a strong naval power, or by the violence and disorder of piracy. In order to ensure it, both of these dangers must be guarded against: naval power must not be allowed to fall into hands that will abuse it; and the seas of the world must be, somehow or other, efficiently policed.

He was thus early deprived of that love and care which even the sternest mother feels for her offspring, and which was lavished upon his more fortunate step-brother in Heathcote Hall in such measure that the fondest and most doting peasant woman could not have sur passed it in intensity and degree, while Blakely was more or less forgotten.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Freedom of the Seas: The History of a German Trap The following pages are not designed to serve any party purpose, nor would they have been written, or published, if mere criticism of the past were their aim and object. They deal with an all-important part of a very live issue, namely, The future Naval policy of Great Britain. Such a subject, at such a time, demands outspoken treatment. It is worse than useless to gloss over, explain away, or minimise past mistakes; no public interest can be served by the adoption of such a course. It may be suggested that the title is a misnomer; but a trap is none the less a trap even if one falls into it with one's eyes Open.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The League of Nations and Freedom of the Seas The conception of a League of Nations in the shape it has taken during the past few years is marked by a feature which distinguishes it from all its predecessors. For the first time it appears to be assumed that Freedom of the Seas, or, in other words, the abolition of belligerent rights afloat, is an essential condition of such a League, and that the two ideas are inseparable, an assumption which carries the scope of recent proposals distinctly beyond the limits of those to which the seventeenth and eighteenth centuries gave birth. None of those schemes ever gathered strength to rise from the ground, yet none of them ever burdened itself with such a load as those of the present day are expected to carry. Indeed Freedom of the Seas in the ordinary acceptance of the term is more than a load. A frank examination of what it connotes will show that it must be a spoke in the wheels which in all probability would prevent any conceivable machinery of a League from acting with effect.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The League of Peace and a Free Sea Having determined the conception of the Freedom of the Seas as a question which only arises in time of war because such freedom already exists undisputed in times of peace, and having broadly defined it as a question of reducing belligerent rights over neutral commerce to the lowest degree compatible with the admission of naval warfare, we have to inquire what the expression connotes in practice.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Flag and Fleet: How the British Navy Won the Freedom of the Seas In acceding to the request to write a Preface for this volume I am moved by the paramount need that all the budding citizens of our great Empire should be thor oughly acquainted with the part the Navy has played in building up the greatest empire the world has ever seen. Colonel Wood has endeavored to make plain, in a stirring and attractive manner, the value of Britain's sea-power. To read his Flag and Fleet will ensure that the lessons of centuries of war will be learnt, and that the most important lesson of them all is this - that, as an empire, we came into being by the Sea, and that we cannot exist without the Sea.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Program of the Freedom of the Sea: A Political Study in the International Law Thus it happens that up to the present day the English have failed to become completely reconciled, in reality as well as in their own minds, to the principle of the freedom of the sea. The doctrine Britannia rules the waves has become too deeply imbedded in their minds. We must, therefore, be always on the lookout for relapses, invalidations, and distortions in the interests of England. This applies above all to the purport of the principle of the freedom of the sea. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Download or read book The Freedom of the Seas Or The Right which Belongs to the Dutch to Take Part in the East Indian Trade written by Hugo Grotius and published by The Lawbook Exchange, Ltd.. This book was released on 2001 with total page 182 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A classic treatise on international maritime law. Originally published: New York: Oxford University Press, 1916. xv, (xiv-xv, 79 pp. paged in duplicate (158 pp.)), 81-83 pp. (total 182 pp.) A translation of Grotius's Mare Liberum, with Latin and English on facing pages. This groundbreaking work was commissioned by the Dutch East India Company to dispute the monopoly on East Indian trade routes claimed by the Portuguese. It argues that the seas are international territory open to all nations, thus rejecting the idea that any area of the seas could belong to a country. An instant classic, it received a great deal of attention when it was published in 1609. Perhaps the most important reply is John Selden's Mare Clausum (1635), which defends British claims to sovereignty over the coastal waters of the British Isles.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Sea Power and Freedom: A Historical Study For the most part, the efforts of navigators were directed then to navigating vessels which were built and used for the purposes of trade; and, for the most part, the efforts of navigators are similarly directed now. In those days, transportation over the water was under taken for the same reason as was transportation over the land - for trade. This is the fact now, and the reason is the same. In those days, the water separated por tions of the land from other portions, and dwellers in one place could usually find in other places certain pro ducts of the soil or handiwork which they did not them selves possess but which they could obtain in exchange for certain products of their own. This was sea com merce in the earliest days, and it is sea commerce now. The main difference is in the number and quantity of the things produced and traded for.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Free Seas in War: A Talk to the Men and Women of Great Britain on the Freedom of the Seas; Together With Extracts From the Writings and Speeches of David Urquhart But the point is this, that although France and England have fought upon the sea for many a long year, yet in the past both were working to the same end, that the sea should be free in time of peace. And so it is her right, now the centuries of falling out are over, to look to England to make common cause with her against the common enemy, for she has two coasts to guard as well as a land frontier. And yet this enemy wants to take control of the sea, and has appropriated the expression Freedom of the Sea to his own militant vocabulary. Being the clever enemy he is, it is not surprising that he has achieved some measure of success; has made some foolish folk believe that we are busy destroying what we ourselves created. So successful, that when men talk now of the Freedom of the Sea they must label it English or German to make their meaning plain. The German accuses us of much wickedness in the past. Our supremacy at sea has been won, so he says, by unfair means. We are not the gracious Mistress of the Sea which we proclaim ourselves, but an unscrupulous Tyrant. It is not very grateful, for the German's economic existence, since he first learned to sail ships, has depended on our free gift. And it is not even original, but only a feeble echo of what Bonaparte used to say, and he failed to prove it.
