Description
The Wooden Warship Construction A History in Ship Models by Brian Lavery is a comprehensive guide to the development of warship construction from the 18th century to the end of wooden shipbuilding. This authoritative book features a large number of full-color model photos, including close-up and detail views, which provide valuable insight into the design and construction of historic warships. The book's focus on technical history is enhanced by detailed captions that highlight interesting or unusual features of each model. By combining these images with an in-depth text, Lavery produces a unique and attractive form of naval history that will appeal to both naval historians and model makers. A new paperback edition of this book makes its content more accessible than ever, offering a fascinating look at the evolution of warship construction over time.
