The Ship Model Builder's Assistant

2019 Reprint of 1926 Edition. Full facsimile of the original edition, not reproduced with Optical Recognition software. Profusely illustrated. The author has written a book with many drawings to illustrate, in working detail, the construction of the more important fittings of the ship, its masting and rigging. The whole subject is so extensive that the critical expert is likely to conclude that a large reference library would be required to master this craft. The author believes that his work is the essential first step in beginning this undertaking, as it presents, in practical form, comprehensive directions on building ship models correctly and in proper proportion.
