Question for May Repo Cruisers: Book Gift

[3riverscruiser]

I saw that you all received a book about the Canal as a gift. What was the title and who was the author?

Portrait of the Panama Canal by William Friar (I believe he is the son of the former Public Relations Director of the Panama Canal Authority). You can see the book on EBay, as it is unbelievable what some people are trying to sell these "souveniers" for. I hope no one buys these things from them, given that there were people on board who couldn't get them, and only wanted them as keepsakes, not as quick moneymakers.
