I just read a review today of "The Voyage of the Rose City" by John Moynahan, the late son of Senator Patrick Moynahan. The review is at http://www.nytimes.com/2011/09/30/b...ge-of-the-rose-city-review.html?_r=1&ref=arts. It's about John's 4-month stint on a tanker while he was a student at Wesleyan. It looks interesting enough that I pre-ordered it for my Kindle to be delivered on Tuesday 10/4.
