About this product
Product Information
Excerpt from How Wooden Ships Are Built: A Practical Treatise on Modern American Wooden Ship Construction With a Supplement on Laying Off Wooden Vessels It is to assist in this important work of training that this book is offered. In other words, the book has been prepared to meet a war emergency and it is hoped the information it contains is of practical value. Most of the material appeared originally in a series of articles published in the marine review between june, 1917, and March, 1918. The entire text, however, has been carefully revised and brought down to date. The illustrations, which the publisher believes form perhaps the most valuable feature of the volume, have been carefully selected. Over 150 of the original photographs were made personally bythe author expressly for this work. They were taken with the sole purpose of showing clearly and accurately how modern wooden ships actually are constructed. The aim in every case was to present important details of construction rather than general. Views. To obtain the photographs and collect the material for this work the author traveled extensively and visited nearly all of the important wooden shipyards in the United States. An effort has been made to produce a book that is practical and illustrative and one that also reects current American practice-accurately.
