Lost At Sea: The Continuing Decline Of The Supreme Court In Admiralty, Michael Sevel
University of Miami Law Review
For the first 200 years of its history, the United States Supreme Court served as the primary leader in the development of, and its cases the primary source of, the admiralty and maritime law of the United States.
