At its best, this is a period piece. But for the beginning boat builder it is not one I would recommend. As one who has built a boat and am building a second, there are a number of other titles that deliver a more satisfying and beneficial read. The information though authentic is dated. Browse Woodenboat Magazine's Bookstore site and examine their numerous titles there before purchasing this option. For a title from the same time period, I heartily recommend: How to Build Wooden Boats: With 16 Small-Boat Designs (Paperback)available here at Amazon.
