Nice pictures, little information,
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Ships Figureheads (Hardcover)
This small (i.e., thin) book was a bit disappointing. It does have some very nice photos, but I was disappointed in the lack of textual content. For some of the images there was little or no useful information. If you are just interested in seeing pictures of a variety of old figure heads the book is fine. As someone interested in the history of ship bow figures I found the limited amount of detailed content disappointing.
