Recounted by a third generation Brix (Peter), who worked from deckhand to CEO, The Brix Maritime Story is a unique telling of local and industry history. Heavily illustrated by maritime photos and maps, it portrays the development of the industry over a 100-year span from 1909. The book will appeal to maritime enthusiasts or anyone interested in a personal story of how one family helped to shape the marine transportation business.
