- Summary
- "For more than four hundred years, New England shipyards have contributed significantly to America's maritime and naval supremacy. This compelling story is presented through the histories of seventy ships built from the colonial era down to modern tiimes. Well-known vessels like the 'Constitution,' the 'Nautilus,' the 'Flying Cloud' and the infamous whaleship 'Essex' are included, but so, too, are the lesser-known ships, including the ill-fated 'Wyoming' and the far-ranging voyager 'Union." Every type of vessel is covered --their builidng or voyages making nautical news, often in exciting fashion, and their exploits filled with adventure, danger, tragedy and survival..."--Back cover.
