摘要
This essay explores the salvage decisions rendered by William Marvin during his time as a judge in Key West (1839-45; 1847-63). It also discusses his celebrated treatise on salvage law (1858), which cemented his reputation as one of America's leading authorities on maritime law. Lastly, it recounts how Marvin superintended the city's notorious wrecking industry.
