Book Description
This antiquarian book contains a collection of historical articles on the planning and construction of model sails. Written in clear, plain language and profusely illustrated, the articles of this guide will be of considerable utility to modern readers with an interest in building model boats and ships, and would make for great additions to collections of allied literature. The chapters of this book include: “Model Building”, “Sailmaking”, “The Sails – This Important Part Fully Dealt With – Alternative Methods and Materials Described and Each Sail Illustrated”, “Sail Planning”, and “The Development of Sail Plan”. Many vintage books such as this are increasingly hard to come by and expensive, and it is with this in mind that we are republishing this book now in an affordable, modern, high quality edition. It comes complete with a specially commissioned new introduction on model building.
