Containerization came to the attention of the American public when the U.S. Government was preparing to give the Emerite of Dubai a contract to operate some of our ports. That possibility gave a special interest to the lecture on containerization presented on March 14 at the Oyster Bay Public Library as the first 20/20 Lecture Series sponsored by three Oyster Bay cultural organizations/destinations, Raynham Hall Museum, the Oyster Bay Historical Society and Planting Fields. Arthur Donovan, U.S. Merchant Marine Academy Professor Emeritus of Maritime History told the story of his newest book on the history of containerization that will come out in April. It is titled The Box that Changed the World. Published by the Journal of Commerce and is co-authored by its editor, Joseph Bonney. The lecture was titled: 50 Years of Containerization: A Brief History of a New Way of Moving Freight that Revolutionized the Global Economy. FULL STORY
