Hello! I got a book called The Lore Of Ships as a late Christmas gift and it is very interesting and informative. It has plenty of drawings as well as text, and covers a lot of topics. I will probably add on to this review as I read the book, but I will show you a few things about it now. P.S. Sorry for the bad lighting.

This next page would be great help for building a cross section.

There is so much more in this book and I would greatly recommend this book to anybody wanting to know more about ships or needing a reference on how they are built. This book will be a great help when building.

Until next time.
