Very fast shipping!! The seller did not list this book according to the e-bay description standards (good should have no highlighting), but the seller did say there was light to moderate highlighting in the book. I'm not sure I would agree the highlighting even fits that description as there are some pages that have more than 50% of them highlighted. Overall, still a positive experience given the fast shipping and the price.

  • Not just A Model Book

    The title of this book is a little misleading. While the book does cover some model construction, what it really deals with are details, from deck fittings to rigging details. There are hundreds of drawings within its pages that cover many aspects of fitting out a ship. This is where its real value lies. As a modeler's guide, it falls short. As a reference, it excels.

  • An excellent ship modelling book covering all aspects of planning and building model sailing ships.

    One of several excellent books on ship model building that are essential to learn the art of ship model building. Is describes the features, parts and rigging of sailing ships across several centuries with lots of illustrations. This lets you see variations across time and by country. Actual ship building with timbers is also discussed as well as modelling techniques.
