Book Description
Exquisite collection of photos from the Museum Archives of the San Francisco Maritime National Historical Park. Many were made with old large (and slow) film resulting in extraordinary detail and contrast. Most of the text is confined to lengthy captions that place the vessel and frequently provide its history. Chapters begin with a page of introduction to such subjects as ports of the Pacific, shipbuilding, the navy. Aside from its obvious place in history collections, this book will grace photography libraries. Chronicle Books grows more admirable with each season.
