Samuel Ward Stanton book

[Carole Lindsay]

Hi all,

Has anyone seen the new paperback edition of "Stanton's American Steam Vessels, the Classic Illustrations"?

This is a reprint of the rare 1895 edition and features illustrations of over 200 ships, including the Astor and Vanderbilt yachts, the Arctic and General Slocum. It's from Dover Publications, and is really worth buying.

Hi Carole,

I haven't seen that book yet, but it sounds interesting.

I'll keep a lookout for it though, thanks.

Best regards,

Jason

Greetings,

American Steam vessels can also be seen online via the Maritime History of the Great Lakes page.
