Seller's Description:
New. Book Octavo, softcover, new in beige pictorial wraps. 278 pp. including index. The book begins in 1600, the earliest date of our detailed knowledge of ships' rigging, and the earliest to which that characteristic seventeenth-century fitting, the spritsail topmast, has been traced. It ends in 1720, roughly the time when the spritsail topmast was superseded by the jib boom and other innovations of eighteenth-century rigging.
