About This Item
From 1978 to 1981, Time-Life Books published a series called 'The Seafarers'. It was 22 volumes, all written by experts in their fields, on different aspects of maritime history.
All are 175-185 pages, all bound in thick black leatherette, all beautifully illustrated with drawings, paintings and photographs.
Of the 22, I have 12 left (the list is below). All are listed here on Biblio. You can buy one, or as many as you like.
Mine are from the first printing. Unless otherwise noted, all are in mint condition.
This one is Fighting Sail, which covers the Golden Age of the Royal Navy in the half-century leading up to, and including, the Battle of Trafalgar.
Condition: Mint
From the series, I have:
- The Clipper Ships
- The Explorers
- Fighting Sail

- The Great Liners
- The Men-of-War
