Ships of Mercy by Don Stephens
The improbable but thrilling story of how a Colorado farm boy built a navy, how a decrepit ocean liner learned to be a hospital, and how a boat load of volunteers are literally changing the face of the world ... one face at a time.
This memoir describes.. a life well spent in the service of humanity * Irish Catholic *

This astonishing ship takes relief and development to the port cities of some of the world's poorest countries.
