Item description from seller

London: Sampson Low, Son, and Marston, 1869. 131, (48 illustrated ads) pp. b/w frontispiece. A good exposition of design ideas of the 1870s, and especially of the efficiency of sails and of various hull shapes."- Toy 4722. Quite early for this sort of thing, and scarce, with Worldcat showing only 10 libraries holding copies. Minor cover wear, lean to spine, outer back hinge split, but a good copy in original cloth binding. With 48 page publishers catalog bound in at end.
