	The Type VII U-Boat (Anatomy of the Ship) (David Westwood) (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-08)

		Conway Maritime Press are well known for their "Anatomy of the Ship" series in which they provide the finest documentation for specific ships or ship types ever published.
		Third in the series of thirty six, this volume is aimed directly at modeller's, as such it lacks the technical detail of many of the others in the series (I found the 'Submarine alliance' the benchmark in Submarine reference).

	Dry Dock Models Forum :: View topic - Rigging The wood ship model
		Another aspect of rigging wood ship models is that in most every case there is only a limited amount of rigging found in the plans and instructions of a kit model.
		Step aboard a real tallship ship and look at all the rigging and then compare what you see on a model of the same ship and there is significantly less rigging on the model.
		I think the smaller ships are best done the loom rout and the big scale ships can be done the more involved ways.The way that the rats attach to the mainmasts is dictated solely by these two decisions.

		The QUEEN MARY was originally conceived due to the fact that the British were being outclassed in the mid 1920s by the American, French, Italian and German shipping lines on the North Atlantic route.
		The British finally agreed to help fund the completion of the ship under the condition that Cunard merge with the White Star Line, which was in poor financial condition.
		This was reluctantly agreed too, and upon completion of the merger of the two lines, the government approved the necessary funding and work began again, on 3 April 1934.

		Another beautiful book of the anatomy of the ship series.
		However, if you are interested in 18th century ships better go for the Bounty and the Pandora, those books have much more detail, which is normal as the size of the books is the same and the ships represented being smaller there is plenty of detail.
		Also have a look at Stephen Biesty Men-o-war cross sections, although it is a book for kids the amount of information there, not just about the ship, but about the daily life of the crew, is huge.
