New Tool for Creating Memories

As a life-long sailor it comes as something of a surprise to find myself the owner of this! We've been out a couple times already and had lots of fun, and looking forward to more warm days on the water.

Ships of the Past by Charles Davis

A magnificent volume about the ships and boats of the northeast US, from the Block Island boats to the US naval frigates. Lines, detail drawings, intelligent first-hand descriptions, reproductions of original source material, period paintings, photographs of models, discussions of life on board by someone who actually did. Am interesting account of the infamous Black Ball Line. I have an abiding passion for the Patrick O'Brian novels, and this could serve as one of the best 'companion books' to have at hand while reading them. Very highly recommended.
