Northern Mariner

The Northern Mariner/Le marin du nord is a quarterly peer-reviewed academic journal published by the Canadian Nautical Research Society/Société canadienne pour la recherche nautique in association with the North American Society for Oceanic History. It covers the study of maritime affairs and the inland waterways of the nations that touch the seas of the northern hemisphere. While the emphasis is on historical essays, the journal publishes articles and research notes which reflect other approaches. Topics of interest include ships, shipbuilding, ship owning, technology, merchant shipping, trade, labour, maritime communities, ports, naval history, fishing, whaling, sealing, underwater archaeology, and maritime biography.
