THROUGH THE HARBOR -- From Everywhere

Pub Date: Aug. 29th, 1938
Publisher: Bobbs -- Merrill

In a somewhat hackneyed form, through a collection of short stories, Miss Eberle dramatizes the facts behind the moving freight vessels of New York harbor. There is a story of Mexico, from which oil is shipped; of Spain and cork, of Australia and wool, of the South and cotton, and so on. Stories good enough, but there should be a better rounded picture and closer tie-up with the harbor, types of boats, etc.
