Customer Reviews

Well written, very interesting

Our 8 year old son really enjoyed this book, reading about one ship a night until he completed it. He usually enjoys fiction, not technical information, but this book contained interesting history about the ships, people and events, and the beautiful layout and illustrations really captured his attention. Sparked by this book, he now draws ships all day long!
