In this revised edition of the Period Ship Handbook, the best of
the original has been retained: a well-illustrated guide to the
construction of static model sailing ships and the offer to the
beginner of all the information needed to get started in this
fascinating hobby. It also continues to introduce the more
experienced model-maker to alternative techniques, well tried over
many years of model shipbuilding. Significant additions have been
made to the original text as a result of a further twelve years of
model-making experience and developments within the kit producing
trade and the availability of new subjects. Following chapters on
kit selection, tools and material, the emphasis of the book moves
to the practical application of the model-making procedures
involved in producing high quality models. The new models selected
to demonstrate these techniques range form the relatively simple to
the very complex but all are constructed from kits currently
available, without the facility of a sophisticated workshop.
Whether you are a beginner or an old hand, whether you fancy the
graceful lines of a 'J' Class yacht or the intricate detail and
historical accuracy of HMS Victory, there is something here for
you.
