This collection of 681 wood engravings includes striking examples of some of the world's most beautiful boats and ships. Among the many famous vessels in this volume are Columbus's ships, the Nina, Pinta, and Santa Maria; King Henry's VIII's Great Harry; the Pilgrim Fathers' Mayflower; Henry Hudson's Half Moon; King Charles I's Sovereign of the Seas; Captain Cook's Discovery; the HMS Bellerophon; Fulton's Clermont; and the Great Eastern. Among famous naval battles shown are the conflict at Actium, the invasion of the Spanish Armada, Dutch-English engagements in the 17th century, Anson's Centurion capturing a Spanish treasure ship, Nelson's victory at Trafalgar, Perry's triumph at Lake Erie, and the Civil War ironclad contest between the Monitor and the Merrimac.
