An introduction to maritime law

James P. Benoit’s guide introduces the law governing the sea and places the subject in a practical context. The description frames maritime law as relevant across several spheres: work at sea, legal practice, government control of waters and resources, and the everyday implications for citizens and consumers. That broad scope makes the book an orientation to a complex legal field, connecting its rules with the people and institutions affected by them.

Good fit for readers who enjoy

  • Mariners seeking an introduction to the legal framework surrounding work at sea
  • Readers interested in maritime law, including legal practitioners and students of the subject
  • Citizens and consumers curious about how laws governing the sea relate to daily life

The Law of the Sea is a fascinating area for a variety of stakeholders: from dedicated mariners working in the challenging and dangerous maritime environment, to lawyers applying the rule of law, to politicians exercising their dominion and control over national waters and resources, to citizens and consumers trying to understand the implications of the Law of the Sea in their daily lives. "A Practical Guide to the Law of the Sea" introduces this robust topic and places it in context regardless of the reader's particular background and interests.
