Description: Ten beautiful "Anatomy of the Ship" series books,all with dust covers and in like-new condition. (Only ENDEAVOUR has some minor cover issues as shown in pictures.) Purchase individually for $30each (or $230 for all ten) with free shipping in the U.S. This highly acclaimed series aims to provide the finestdocumentation of individual ships and ship types ever published. It is aradical departure from the usual monograph approach, which concentrates oneither the ship's service history, its technical details or externalappearance. All of these aspects are included, but what makes the seriesunique is a complete set of superbly executed line drawings, both theconventional type of plan as well as explanatory perspective keys. Although elaborate drawings are extremely popular in aviation publications, this is the first attempt to document a ship in similar depth -- literally down tothe nuts and bolts. These drawings are accurate, visually exciting andtotally comprehensive, offering ship buffs, historians and modelmakers a novelinsight into the technicalities of each ship type covered.
