Inhaltsangabe

This vintage book is a detailed guide to building model historical boats, with information on tools and equipment, complete directions for assembly, practical tips and hints, and more. Profusely illustrated and highly accessible, this volume is ideal for those with little previous experience, and would make for a fantastic addition to collections of related literature. Many vintage books such as this are becoming increasingly scarce and expensive. It is with this in mind that we are republishing this volume now in an affordable, high-quality edition complete with a specially commissioned new introduction on model building.
