This guide to wooden boats and ships is intended for use by nautical archaeologists and historians, and those involved in documenting and interpreting the remains of wrecks or abandoned vessels. The first part of the book introduces the discipline and presents basic information on ship and boat and ship construction. Part two investigates ancient, medieval, and postmedieval shipwrecks in turn, and represents a cross section of shipbuilding technology as seen through the interpretation of a select group of finds. The final part addresses the techniques of recording hull remains, assembling archival information, reconstructing vessels, and converting data into plans and publications, based on work done on previous projects. Also included is an illustrated glossary, specifically designed for archaeological use, and a select bibliography.
