Superb research
This is a superbly researched and eminently readable text on the history of the Folkboat and the author also manages to include many of the derivations from the european wooden folkboat into the north american fiberglass market. A must for every sailor's bookshelf.

Recommended reading for nautical enthusiasts,
By Midwest Book Review (Oregon, WI USA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: The Folkboat Story: From Cult to Classic-The Renaissance of a Legend (Sheridan House) (Hardcover)
Written by editor and boating writer Dieter Loibner, The Folkboat Story: From Cult To Classic -- The Renaissance Of A Legend is a thoroughly fascinating book about the 25-foot sailing vessel called the Nordic Folkboat, first designed during World War II and still sailed in regattas worldwide today. Black-and-white photographs and a clear text present the history, uses, and present day charm of the Folkboat. The Folkboat Story is recommended reading for nautical enthusiasts and a fine gift book for sailing buffs.
