Synopsis

A vanished fleet sails again through these pages. Frederick William Wallace's Record Of Canadian Shipping stands as the definitive maritime history reference for anyone drawn to the age of sail, the shipyards of eastern Canada, and the legacy of merchant vessels that shaped a nation's trade and identity. This meticulously compiled ship registry catalog chronicles square-rigged sailing ships of 500 tons and over, built between 1786 and 1920 in the eastern provinces of British North America. Each entry serves as a portal into the shipbuilding traditions that flourished along the Atlantic coast and the Great Lakes, offering a detailed historical shipbuilding directory for researchers, collectors, and those tracing family ties to the sea. The work's precision transforms it into an indispensable genealogy maritime resource and a museum archival reference, trusted by historians and maritime enthusiasts alike. Republished by Alpha Editions in a careful modern edition, this volume preserves the spirit of the original while making it effortless to enjoy today - a heritage title prepared for readers and collectors alike. Wallace's dedication ensures that the stories of Canadian merchant vessels and the shipyard-built vessels database are not lost to time, but remain accessible to new generations. Whether you are a casual reader intrigued by the romance of the age of sail or a classic-literature collector seeking a cultural treasure, this authoritative record opens the logbook on a bygone era of Canadian shipping and craftsmanship.
