About the author
Records available during this search point to Ridgely Hunt as an early 20th-century American author associated with maritime subjects. Library catalogs credit him in connection with Ocean Steamships, a popular account of steamship construction, development, and operation, and booksellers also list him as the author of Steamship Lines of the World.
The web results were somewhat mixed because another better-documented Ridgely Hunt appears in historical and biographical sources, so only the book-related details were clear enough to use here. Based on the sources found, his work seems aimed at general readers interested in ships, shipping lines, and the technology and business of ocean travel.
