Synopsis
The pride of the Tudor fleet, Mary Rose served 34 years in Henry VIIIs navy before sinking at the Battle of the Solent in 1545. The raising of the ship in 1982 gave archaeologists, including Douglas McElvogue, a unique opportunity to learn about the Tudor navy. Analysing the archaeological evidence, this book reconstructs the service history of Mary Rose, and provides a complete set of scale drawings and technical plans of the great warship. From the Anatomy of the Ship series.

Review
Containing more interpretation of the hull and working of the ship than any publication to date, this book includes a huge mount of very detailed historical, iconographic and archaeological information. The author has interpreted the recovered structure to make it fit the Mary Rose illustrated by Anthony Anthony in 1546. The numerous scale drawings are augmented by technical illustrations with a descriptive index and explanatory views. The number of concepts covered in detail is impressive; all aspects of the ship and how she worked and fought are included, together with a history of the ship and description of life on board. For anyone interested in how the Mary Rose worked, it is a must * Alexzandra Hildred, Archaeologist and Curator of Ordnance at The Mary Rose Trust * Tudor Warship Mary Rose is a unique insight into the architecture and construction of the iconic ship of the Tudor period * Quarterdeck * Tudor Warship Mary Rose provides valuable graphical representation of Mary Rose. Technical plans are supported with copies of paintings and artefacts as well as explanatory views. * Trinity House Flash magazine *
