Synopsis The Dory Book by : John Gardner
The dory has seen duty as a fishing boat, lumberman's batteau, lifeboat, recreational rowing boat, and racing sailboat. The most comprehensive book about dories ever published, this is at once a history of the dory, a practical handbook on dory building, and a compendium of 23 dory designs with full construction details. The author, a longtime contributor to National Fisherman, and the illustrator, Sam Manning, are perhaps the foremost experts on the subject. A steady stream of letters and photographs to the late John Gardner from successful dory builders worldwide has been testimony to the widespread popularity and influence of this book.

Synopsis Ship Models from Kits by : David Griffith
In the past thirty years the world of model kits has undergone a veritable revolution. New techniques in injection moulding have improved the scale accuracy and surface detail of the humble plastic kit, while many specialist companies now produce top-quality resin models, vastly broadening the range of subjects on the market. However, the really radical change has been the advent of photo-etched brass fret, which allows the finest detail to be reproduced to scale. In ship modelling, this has resulted in a new form of the hobby, mid-way between traditional build-from-the-box simplicity and the time-consuming demands of fabricating everything from scratch. These new materials have prompted innovative techniques, which are comprehensively demonstrated in this new manual. Designed for those wishing to achieve the best results from their ship kits in the 1:700 to 1:350 range of scales, it uses step by step photographs to take the reader through the building of two models, one in plastic and one in resin, from basic construction, fittings and detailing, to painting, finishing and display. Written by a highly experienced, award-winning ship modeller, the book is a showcase for the contemporary approach to the hobby.

Synopsis Finishing Scale Ship Models by : Tom Gorman
Growing numbers of model shipwrights aim to attain the highest standard of finish on their models, many aspiring to 'exhibition finish', and yet painting and fine detailing is probably the most difficult aspect of modelling to excel at. This book is written for all those searching for tips and techniques to complete a fine scale ship model. Drawing on a lifetime's practical experience of modelmaking, the author explains how to recreate the most intricate details of a ship, from funnels and masts to hatches and ventilators and the smallest deck fittings. He draws attention to the important and significant details on full-sized ships and then explains how to make, fit and finish these on the scale model. The second half of the book goes on to describe painting techniques and explain how hulls, superstructures and the mass of detail can be finished off to professional standards. This practical book will prove a revelation for all those modellers, whatever their proficiency, who seek to perfect that final and intricate component on their scale ship and transform their work to museum or near-museum standard.
