Book description: Hutchinson. Very Good+.. 1985. 2nd (Revised) Edition. Paperback. 0091608112 Well illustrated with 4 colour plates, 22 black-and-white plates, and 27 text figures. 207pp including Appendices and Index. The 'Amsterdam', a Dutch East Indiaman beached near Hastings in Sussex in 1749, still lies buried beneath the sands. Peter Marsden, a professional archaeologist, tells the enthralling story of the efforts to ensure that this time-capsule of 18th century life, should be recovered. Now work is well under way to conserve both the contents and to reconstruct the ship herself in her native Amsterdam. Card covers, slightly bumped at corners. Very feint foxing spots to page edges. Otherwise a clean and Very Good+ copy. .
