This is a first edition, first printing, of Progressive Lessons in Machine Shop Practice, Book I. It was produced as a textbook by Harry A Jones, Machine Shop Instructor at Vancouver Technical School, and the title page states that it was authorized for use in the schools of British Columbia. However, it quickly became an international best-seller and was used in schools throughout the world--this copy was purchased in the UK. See table of contents photo: everything covered is illustrated. This copy is in superb condition. 172 pages, only slightly yellowed with age. The paper is fine and smooth. The fading you see in the photos only appears in photos. There are a couple of fingerprints. Two students signed the book, one at the front, one at the back. Other than that, it is perfect. And all still relevant to woodworkers and cabinetmakers.

Barbara Westman (b 1929-?) is, or was, an American illustrator who was to Boston what Bemelmans was to Paris. She is very well-known for her crowded and meticulously-detailed depictions of Boston neighbourhoods. Although she did extensive work for the Boston Globe, and her work appears in museums and art galleries, and she produced at least ten covers for The New Yorker, she managed to stay entirely out of the limelight, to the extent that no one seems to know if she's still alive.

This is a stated first edition of The Sea Remembrs: Shipwrecks and Archaeology, from Homer's Greece to the Rediscovery of the Titanic. This copy is from the first issue, in the UK. It was written by the American pioneer underwater archaeologist Peter Throckmorton (1928-1990).
It includes detailed illustrations of many famous lost ships--see the Table of Contents photo.
From a review:
I'll give it five stars for the uniquely detailed information on important maritime archaeological digs of recent history. The chapters on Mediterranean finds in the early days of scuba/aqualung exploration were totally fascinating.The details of each dig were completely overwhelming and I had to start glossing over all the technical minutiae if I was ever going to get through it, but the highlights of historical maritime archaeology was well worth the overall read.
It's a large book: 240 pages, 9 1/4" x 11 3/4". Packed full of photos, maps etc.

This is a first edition (1967) of The Search for Speed Under Sail 1700-1855, by Howard Chapelle (1901-1975), a naval architect and curator of maritime history at the Smithsonian.
It is considered an important work on the development of the fast sailing ship; it uses a new method of comparing the speed of sailing vessels built at different dates. It is heavily illustrated with detailed plans and views.
451 pages--it's a heavy book (and expensive).
This is a former library book. It has no dogears, but there are still a few of the library's fittings on it, and there is some wear to the cover. Aside from darkening of the paper, the book is otherwise in perfect condition.
