12mo. 4.25 x 7 inches. viii + 132 pp; xii + 174 pp. + 22 + [2] pp. publisher's catalogue. In original green limp cloth wrappers with blind stamped decoration and paper title labels. Spine sunned and front hinge starting to crack; otherwise a good copy. Illustrated by 18 plates, including 16 folding and by text figures. Although the titles bound together have very similar titles, they are in fact two different works. The first, which two has prefaces dated 1849 (original publication) and 1854, Second Edition, is the actual Rudiments of Naval Architecture as quoted on both title pages. The second, as is evidenced by its running title, is the Rudimentary Treatise on Ship Building (also quoted as the cover title). Naval Architecture would appear to be the generic title for a two part work issued in one volume. MARITIME NAVAL MARITIME SHIPS NAVAL 19TH CENTURY MARITIME. Bestandsnummer des Verkäufers 23772
