Learning how to pilot a ship through Wrangell Narrows and Peril Strait is not an easy matter for a vessel operator new to the area, or even for those with experience. It takes time, patience, and a certain appetite for risk. The older generation of captains knew the channels in great detail, but they did not write anything down to leave for the next generation coming up through the ranks. Recognizing the wealth of the knowledge these navigators possessed in their memories, William Hopkins decided to document their charts and methods as he himself learned to maneuver ships through these important and narrow southeastern Alaska channels. A now retired captain who logged many voyages, Hopkins delineates the navigable courses for passing these treacherous waterways in this essential guide.

In "The Mysteries of Free Masonry," William Morgan delves into the esoteric traditions and intricate rituals that define Freemasonry, revealing the hidden knowledge and symbolism that have long intrigued both initiates and outsiders. Written in a direct yet evocative style, the book articulates the philosophical underpinnings of Masonic beliefs while critiquing the secretive nature that has often surrounded the organization. This work emerged in the context of 19th-century America, a time when Enlightenment ideals clashed with emerging populist sentiments, making it a pivotal examination of the interplay between secrecy and social order. William Morgan, a prominent figure in early American Masonic history, was deeply influenced by his own controversial experiences within the fraternity. Disillusioned by the perceived injustices and exclusivity of Masonic practices, Morgan''s decision to expose the inner workings of the organization stemmed from a personal quest for truth and transparency. His subsequent disappearance under suspicious circumstances further solidified his status as a martyr for those advocating for openness in secret societies. This compelling book is a must-read for anyone interested in Freemasonry, American history, or the dynamics of secret societies. Morgan''Äôs incisive observations invite readers to question the balance between confidentiality and the ethical implications of exclusion, making it an essential addition to the library of both scholars and general readers alike.

When we accept that advertisers and sponsors dictate athletic schedules, that success in sport is measured by revenue, that athletes’ loyalties lie with their commercial agents instead of teams and that game rules exist to be tested and broken in the pursuit of a win, what does our regard for sport say about the moral and political well-being of our society? Why Sports Morally Matter is a deeply critical examination of pressing ethical issues in sports – and in society as a whole. Exploring the broad historical context of modern America, William J. Morgan argues that the current state of sports is a powerful indictment of our wealth-driven society and hyper-individualistic way of life. Taking on critics from all sides of the political debate, Morgan makes the case that, despite the negating effect of free market values, sport still possesses important features that encourage social, moral and political values crucial to the flourishing of a democratic polity. It is this potential to transform society and the individual that makes sport a key battleground in the struggle for the moral soul of twenty-first century America.
