SUMMARY:Port Newark and the Origins of Container Shipping by Angus Gillespie – Lecture and book signing
DESCRIPTION:Thursday\, November 10\, 2022 \n6PM \nContainer shipping is a vital part of the global economy.

This fascinating study traces the birth of containerization to Port Newark\, New Jersey\, in 1956 when trucker Malcom McLean thought of a brilliant new way to transport cargo. \nPURCHASE TICKETS
