Chesapeake Bay Log Canoes and Bugeyes
ISBN: 9780870330117 / Angielski / Twarda / 184 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. For generations, vessels built on the shores of the Chesapeake Bay have been famous among seafaring peoples of Europe and America. In Maryland and Virginia, the two states which confine the bay, the master shipwrights have always been experimental designers of sturdy vessels for use wherever speed has been the prime requirement. Some, like the Baltimore clipper, have become world famous. Little note has been made, however, of other types of craft, even though their utility and length of service have been considerably longer. This volume redresses that oversight. Brewington traces the history...
