Scott Baty's "Ships That Passed" invites readers on a poignant journey through the forgotten histories of vessels and the lives intertwined with them. With meticulous research and evocative prose, Baty unearths the untold stories of ships that, for various reasons, slipped through the cracks of collective memory—be they ill-fated voyages, groundbreaking designs that never reached their full potential, or vessels that simply faded into obscurity after serving their purpose. More than just a chronicle of maritime engineering, this book is a meditation on transience, the echoes of human ambition, and the silent narratives carried by the very currents of time.
