Average Reviews:
(More customer reviews)This is a very (thick) detailed book on the construction of real historic clipper ships. It contains everything from lines to layout to fitting out details for many clipper ships built between 1850 and 1856. No pretty pictures, but lots of useful diagrams and drawings. An experienced shipwright could probably build a very good clipper ship from this complete reference.

Long of line, incredibly fleet, with tall, raking masts and clouds of sail, the great Yankee clipper ships stir dreams of romance and adventure. This book, the most important and detailed ever to appear on clipper ships, is the fruit of 35 years of research. Lavishly pictorial, it's a boon to maritime historians, model makers, and dreamers alike.
