Description
235 pages. Abundantly illustrated in black and white. "The fascination of sailing barges is not merely picturesque: the handling of the vessels, their function, development of design and the various subtle adaptations of hull and rig for different conditions, form an intricate story. The author's research has revealed much information not previously recorded, and this illuminating study will certainly find its way into the permanent bibliography of sail." - from dust jacket. Usual library markings. Binding intact. Average wear. A sound working copy. Book
