With photographs and descriptions of 150 vessels, Tall Ships pictures the major class"A" ships along with many class "B" and "C" vessels from around the world. Organized alphabetically for easy reference, Tall Ships offers a major photograph of each vessel, supplement by many photographs of details ranging from figure heads and binnacles to flags and rigging. The text of Tall Ships describes each ship featured, its history and notable events under sail, along with its technical specifications. This unique guide is an ideal book for everyone interested in tall ships and their enduring history and traditions.
Review
"I have yet to find a more comprehensive and well presented book on the subject, and at the price it should well be within the reach of just about every tall ship enthusiast. It's an absolute must": if you can't afford it right now, put it at the very top of your Christmas list." -- Tall Ship International, June/July 1997
"With each color photograph on each page, Thad Koza's collection of the world's most majestic sailing vessels will undoubtedly take its place in the librairies of sail aficionados. From old fighting ships like the USS Constitution, to the Russian training ship Sedov, which is the largest sailing vessel afloat, the hardcover book includes scantlings and a description for each of the 150 featured ships" -- Ocean Navigator, May/June 1997
