Seller's Description:
Very Good. Hardcover. 4to. Naval Institute Press, Annapolis, MD. 1996. 175 pgs. Illustrated with color & black and white photos. Conway's History of the Ship. First Edition/First Printing. DJ has light shelf-wear present to the DJ extremities. Bound in cloth with titles present to the spine. Boards have light wear present to the extremities of the boards. No ownership marks present. Text is clean and free of marks. Binding tight and solid. A period that is commonly presented as a long, drawn out battle between sail and steam, this volume-the sixth in an ambitious series-sets out to prove that this was not the case and that shipowners, far from seeing the two types as irreconcilable rivals, invested in one or the other according to the usual commercial evaluation of potential risks and rewards. EB; 10 X 0.5 X 11.75 inches; 176 pages.
