About This Item
The most comprehensive and authoritative reference book of its kind, The Oxford Companion to Ships and the Sea is was first published in 1976 to huge acclaim. It covers every aspect of the seas and the vessels that sail on them, from shipbuilding, yachting, diving, and marine mammals, to tidal power, piracy, and the literature and language of the sea.
This is the first paperback edition--the corrected edition, published in 1988.
971 pages, including hundreds of photos.
As you can see, there is a tiny amount of shelfwear to the spine; other than that, it's in perfect condition.
