About

The words and illustrations that Harold Underwood achieved in his study of masts and rigging of the ships of the great age of sail, from the clipper ships to the last great square riggers that were the bulk carriers of the late 1800s and early 1900s. Undoubtedly the definitive work of its type, with the author's immaculate plans, drawings, diagrams and sketches complementing equally comprehensive text.

The nine chapters cover Principles of Rig and Rigging, Masts and Spars of Iron and Steel Vessels, Masts and Spars of Wooden Vessels, Standing Rigging, Sails, Running Rigging, Coasters and Small Craft, Unusual Rigs and the Use of Tables and Formulae.

Illustrated throughout with monochrome fine line drawings and plans.
