    Description

    These 45 classics should be in the personal library of any person interested in the ships circa 1650 - 1860. All books are hardcover unless shown as paperback in the table below. Most books are very good, or like new. The Price range shown are the prices being asked for these books as of August 2021, after omitting the lowest and highest price.
    This E-bay listing is
    less than what you would pay
    if you bought all these books at the lowest price they are currently selling for. I am excluding the high price of the rare edition of the "
    32 Gun Frigate Essex: Building a Plank-on-Frame Model (Phoenix Publications, Inc.)" from that calculation. That is a freebie!
    These books have been lovingly compiled and used by master ship modeler Donald R. Campbell.
