Steamboats and Modern Steam Launches
The most fascinating and esoteric marine publication of all time. Tens of thousands of copies of this little magazine have been printed over the past three decades--yet it is still a rare book! Coveted and treasured, it is hunted in rare bookstores and has sold for as high as $150.00. The original editor, Bill Durham, provides a new 16-page overview for the steam launch builder, beginner and veteran alike. This volume's tough reinforced cloth cover with sewn binding is reminiscent of guilded 19th Century steam handbooks.
