100 Gun Ship \"Victory\" (Anatomy of the Ship) by John McKay
Pages: 120
Publisher: Conway Maritime Press Ltd.

One of the most popular titles in the best-selling Anatomy of the Ship series Comes complete with 1/192 Scale fold-out plan Forever associated with Nelson\'s last battle, HMS Victory is one of the most famous ships of all time, and is now preserved as a major part pf the Royal Naval Museum in Portsmouth. The ship\'s survival is particularly appropriate since Victory is not only an example of the ultimate sailing warship - the three decker First Rate - but was also the most popular and successful 100-gun ship of the period. Forty years old by the time of Trafalgar, she had been the flagship of half a dozen famous admirals, and was to continue in active service until 1812. First published in 1987, this revised edition of the 100-gun ship Victory now incorporates and details the most recent research and findings of the HMS Victory Advisory Technical Committee.

This Volume Features:
* Full description of the ship and her position in the development of the First Rate
* Pictorial section emphasising close-up and on-board photographs
* Guide to the ship\'s Trafalgar colour scheme on the book jacket
* More than 300 perspective and 3-view drawings, with in-depth descriptive keys, of every detail of the ship as presently restored - general arrangements, hull construction, fittings, decoration, masts and yards, riggings and armament

Another e-Book for all the Period Ship Modellers out there and I think some of the MSW people will appreciate this one.
Fair Winds & God Speed.
