Review:
A finely printed hard cover book with full color throughout and the content has something for everyone...This is the sort of book that you would keep close at hand so that you could read an article or two whenever you had the chance. I think that Shipwright, newly re-planked, and re-rigged is a treat for any ship modeler and I give it high marks. --Bob Friedman,SeaWatch Books, March 2011
