Originally published in 1930, this is a wonderfully detailed look
at the history of the Sailing Ship in the nineteenth century.
Packed with photos and anecdotes, every major ship and Captain of
the day is examined in depth. Many of the earliest books,
particularly those dating back to the 1900s and before, are now
extremely scarce and increasingly expensive. Home Farm Books are
republishing these classic works in affordable, high quality,
modern editions, using the original text and artwork. Contents
Include: Types of Ships - The East Indiamen - American Superiority
and Atlantic Packets - Navigation Laws, Utility Ships - Opium and
Tea Clippers - Rushes To Californian and Australian Gold Fields,
Some Fast Passages - Wool, Wheat and Emigrant Ships - Roaring
Forties, Icebergs, Slow and Fast Passages, Etc - Disasters,
Rescues, Etc - Life On A Sailing Ship
