100 Gun Ship Victory; The by John McKay, Forever associated with
Nelson's last battle at Trafalgar, Victory is one of the most famous
ships of all time. An example of the ultimate sailing warship--the
three-decker First Rate--Victory was the most popular and successful
100-gun ship of the period, the flagship of half a dozen famous
admirals. First published in 1987 in the Anatomy of the Ship series
and now updated, this volume provides the most detailed description
and illustrations of the Victory available anywhere. A pictorial
section contains numerous clear photographs emphasizing close-up and
on-board views of ship equipment and spaces. Three hundred perspective
and three-view drawings, with fully descriptive keys, illustrate every
detail of the ship, including hull construction, masts and yards,
armament, rigging, decoration and fittings. These accurate and totally
comprehensive drawings offer ship buffs, historians, and model makers
a full view of the ship and her position in the development of the
First Rate. --Naval Institute Press, 2000, 120. Pages, Many photos,
