is the first comprehensive study of maritime law in South Africa since the Admiralty Jurisdiction Regulation Act of 1983 broke the shackles of the limited reach of English Colonial admiralty jurisdiction — which paradoxically then still applied in a Republican South Africa.

Second edition now being revised and updated (October 2004)
