After an introductory essay on the historiography of port engineering, the editor presents a collection of 17 engineering history articles (collected from , the and other sources) which were published between 1925 and 1994. Covering a number of different projects constructed in countries such as England, Australia, and India, papers discuss career histories of the engineers and technical details of breakwater, pier, dock, and harbor construction. A few of the articles depart from the established subject matter and explore port engineering from the perspectives of geography and economic history.
