Old Sailors loved nothing better than vying with one another at sea or in harbor to recognize a ship or boat on the horizon. It was sometimes an important life-saving talent to have in battle. Modern boat enthusiasts, including yachtsmen and fishermen, still like to indulge in this ancient skill. There have been many thousands of water vessels developed within the last three and a half thousand years, from the simple wooden log or dug-out to the huge sophisticated ships of Brunel and other nineteenth century designers. This is the realisation of author's intention to give readers a simple, quick reference book, illustrating 110 of these old ships and boats up to the turn of the twentieth century. They fall into the general categories of Ancient Craft, Sailing Ships, Small Sailing Boats and Craft and Steam Ships. The result is a handy book for those many enthusiasts who love the sea and would like to know more about these old and interesting vessels.

It’s okay
Format: Paperback
I’m a veteran RN who left nursing to raise my family. I let my license expire because I did not have to work, nor did I want to. I was burnt out. Anyway, I decided to get my license reinstated and instead of doing expensive refresher courses, I’m taking the NCLEX. Again. After 18 years. I just wanted to brush up on some of the topics and procedures. I don’t know… this book was okay. It was nice to have access to all the practice questions, but I did notice that a lot of times, the “correct” answers went directly against what it says in the book. I feel like that’s confusing, especially for a new grad nurse who doesn’t have much time in the field. Anyway, I wouldn’t buy this again, but I’m testing tomorrow, so we will see how it goes!
