Description
Most of the book covers every type of oar and sail powered ship. The remaining part is devoted to power ships and opens with illustrations of early manually-paddled craft. After the famous "Charlotte", "Comet", Savannah" and "Sirius" there are two-page spreads of the Brunel's "Great Eastern" and the "Great Britain", the first propeller driven ship to cross the Atlantic.
