Hi Folks,

I bought Vol 1 of this series from Seawatch Books.  I wanted to buy Vol 2 but it is out of stock for over a year now.

https://seawatchbooks.com/products/the-naiad-frigate-38-1797-volume-ii-by-ed-tosti

 

Does anyone have a volume 2 with prints to sell?  I don't need the whole set..

 

Thanks!

Guy

Out from the door where it began.

Now far ahead the Road has gone,

Let others follow it who can!

Let them a journey new begin,

But I at last with weary feet

Will turn towards the lighted inn,

My evening-rest and sleep to meet.

 Guy, this is all I could find, it's for both volumes but it's supposedly in stock. Dang spendy, ouch.

Have you tried looking at second hand book marketplaces?  While not ideal, Abebooks  for one does have one available as part of the set.  You could always sell your duplicate volume 1.

Hi Jason, yes I saw that indeed.  I am debating. 
I’ve been told that eventually there will be a reprint. 
thanks

Good Evening Guy;

 

Sea Watch Books are indeed intending to do a reprint of volume 2; Mike, the 'Sea'-eo told me himself. You are not the only one wanting a copy!

 

Hang on to your loot, and send Sea Watch an email telling them that you want to purchase Vol II, and ask when will they reprint it. The more people who write to them, the sooner it might happen.

 

All the best,

 

Mark P

Previously built models (long ago, aged 18-25ish) POB construction. 32 gun frigate, scratch-built sailing model, Underhill plans.

2 masted topsail schooner, Underhill plans.

 

Started at around that time, but unfinished: 74 gun ship 'Bellona' NMM plans. POB 

 

On the drawing board: POF model of Royal Caroline 1749, part-planked with interior details. My own plans, based on Admiralty draughts and archival research.

 

Always on the go: Research into Royal Navy sailing warship design, construction and use, from Tudor times to 1790.
