Although the primary model described in Volume I is to scale in all its internal constructional details, alternative simplified methods are also included, as are the hulls of sailing models, power craft and clinker-built boats. The present book is founded on the experience of some fifty years of spare-time model building and takes the reader right through its subject, from the reading and interpretation of plans to mounting the finished model on its base. It is a book which will raise the standard of the modelling of wooden ships.
