An exploration of fascinating ports around the globe. This beautifully illustrated volume includes fiction from writers who have visited or lived in these seafaring cities as well as facts and practical information about them.

A literary cruise through the past and present of the world’s ports in the company of adventurous writers. Part travel fiction, part travel guide, it pays homage to places that have always been associated as much with rootlessness and wanderlust as they have with trade and backbreaking work.

»Ports« travels from Marseilles via Rotterdam to New York, and then on to Tokyo, Surabaja, Calcutta and other destinations. It’s a must for any reader with a longing for the sea.

In addition to the portraits of each port, literary texts and photographs, this volume offers general information on the ports and details for the owners of private boats as well as for cruise passengers.
