  • BUILDING PLANK ON FRAME SHIP MODELS - The 'plank-on-frame' method is the pre-eminent ship modelling technique, which nearly all model shipwrights aspire to. Taking as his example the two-masted sloop Cruiser of 1752, the author leads the reader through every stage of building a model of the vessel, from preliminary research and taking off lines to the actual construction of the hull and fittings, and its masting and rigging. Each clear, step-by-step stage is described in the text and illustrated with explanatory line drawings and photographs. Since publication in 1992 this volume has established itself as the standard work of reference for model hull construction.
  • Built-Up Ship Model Publication of the Marine Research Society - A highly detailed, superbly illustrated manual introducing serious model builders to the hand-crafting of ship models from the bottom up, exactly as real ships were built in shipyards. The model is the 16-gun United States brig Lexington, in active service during the Revolution.
  • Historic Ship Models - More than 2,500 photographs, detailed diagrams, intricate drawings, and easy-to-follow plans fill every page of this invaluable sourcebook for making model ships. It's simply breathtaking, rich in historical facts about real ships that sailed the seas from 3000 B.C. to the 19th century, and generously informative. Charts and checklists abound, and the essential advice covers every conceivable point, from deciding on a project to choosing the best plans, from making the most of a limited budget to selecting the handiest materials. Every model maker will find eye-opening ideas.
  • Masting and Rigging of English Ships of War, 1625-1860 - I used this book as the main reference for rigging my model of HMS Unicorn of 1745, and I beleive that the rigging is now as acurate as I could reasonably make it and far better than the original kit instructions would have allowed.
  • New Period Ship Handbook - New Period Ship Handbook.
  • The Fishes of the Sea: Commercial and Sport Fishing in New England - In this wide-ranging book Dave Preble, who has spent a lifetime fishing the waters of the East Coast, provides a fascinating overview of the history and nature of both commercial and sport fishing in New England waters. He brings to life the glory days when fish were plentiful and new technology made huge catches commonplace. He hauntingly describes the havoc wrought by overfishing in the 1980's, and finally expresses the hope that a new ethical approach to nature and strict adherence to quotas will combine with the fortuitous resurgence of species believed near extinction. The scientific and technical discourse about the major species-cod, stripers, bluefish, tuna, sharks, etc.-is interspersed with exciting tales reminiscent of The Perfect Storm. Through it all, we experience firsthand a unique, highly dangerous lifestyle, always at the brink of disaster.
  • Commercial Fishing in Alaska - Fishermen catch some six billion pounds of fish a year valued at over two billion dollars, making commercial fishing the third largest industry in Alaska. Diving head-first into one of the most important segments of Alaska’s economy, Commercial Fishing in Alaska reviews the entire fishing industry in the words and insights of a former commercial fishermen. From the premier salmon industry to the volatile herring fishery, from the high-volume trawling of groundfish to the monstrous halibut and dwindling crab harvests, this is the first time all of Alaska’s fisheries have been combined into one comprehensive volume. Also explored are the latest rapidly growing fishing industries: shellfish mariculture and dive fisheries. The book’s final chapter examines the future of the fishing industry and of our seas through Daryl Binney’s riveting personal story as a participant in the fishery observer program. Fisheries everywhere are in trouble and Alaska is no exception. Some say record harvests in the North Pacific will continue, while critics worry that the ocean may be on its last leg. The debate, the politics, and the issues are all discussed in Commercial Fishing in Alaska, a beautifully photographed and crafted book that takes a complicated subject matter and transforms it into layman’s terms. Whether you are a fisherman, a fisheries economist, or just are interested in learning about one of the earth’s great fisheries, you will find Joel Gay’s inside look at commercial fishing a great read and a valuable resource.
