This is a pristine copy of Ships of the World: An Historical Encyclopedia, written by the American maritime historian Lincoln Paine and published in 1997. Its original (dated) price tag is on the back.
It is a comprehensive and very readable encyclopedia covering over 1000 of the world's best-known and most significant vessels. Each ship is described with a vivid short essay which includes its personality, specs, construction and history. It talks about the great seafarers, naval campaigns, technology, exploration, and maritime disasters. It includes maps, timelines and 200 illustrations (see photos of illustrations list).
It is a thick, heavy, expensive book on high-quality paper. 680 pages, 8 1/4" x 10 1/4" x 1 3/4". It weighs 3 1/2 lbs.
This copy is in mint condition. Its only flaw is a small tear to the dust jacket, which has been taped.
Otherwise, pristine condition. Lovely book.
