| Publisher Description: Please note that the content of this book primarily consists of articles available from Wikipedia or other free sources online. The allure of Nordic waterways is ancient and for centuries sailors who braved the waters have faced the dangers of war, storms and unexpected changes in weather. This book looks specifically at the shipwrecks of Norway, Sweden and Denmark and some of the battles that downed the vessels. Project Webster represents a new publishing paradigm, allowing disparate content sources to be curated into cohesive, relevant, and informative books. To date, this content has been curated from Wikipedia articles and images under Creative Commons licensing, although as Project Webster continues to increase in scope and dimension, more licensed and public domain content is being added. We believe books such as this represent a new and exciting lexicon in the sharing of human knowledge. |
