In-depth look at the towing industry, both inland and ocean. Part 1 is an overview with descriptions of tug types, modern gear, design. Part 2 covers operations, special situations. Part 3 deals with the business of towing.

John S. Blank's Modern Towing, published by Cornell Maritime Press in 1989, is a broad treatment of the tug and barge business. It is organized in three parts: the towing industry, towing operations, and towing as a business.

More than 300 illustrations support the text, and over 50 appendices supply reference material, which gives the book value both as a working guide for tug crews and as background for those managing a towing company.
