Marvellous Work on a Lost World,

Hello Skipjack...Received my book today The Junks and Sampans of the Yangtze. This is a collectors item and going to be the perfect Christmas gift for my boyfriend. We own a 55 foot,77,000 pound, Built on the Yantze River Chinese Junk. The gentelman we bought it from told me I had to have this book, so thank you for having it to purchase. It came in a very timely manner, and is more perfect than i thought. It will be a treasure for us forever. FIVE STARS and Happy Holidays....
