Taschenbuch. Condition: Neu. Neuware - 'Last Days of Mast & Sail' is a comprehensive study of maritime history and naval architecture, presented as an insightful 'essay in nautical comparative anatomy.' Sir Alan Hilary Moore provides a detailed examination of the diverse forms of masts, sails, and rigging that characterized the final era of commercial and naval sail. By treating various vessel types and their equipment as biological structures, Moore traces the evolution and regional variations of wind-powered craft across the globe.The work meticulously documents the technical nuances of square-rigged ships, fore-and-aft rigs, and unique local coastal vessels, preserving a record of seafaring traditions that were rapidly vanishing in the early 20th century. Through careful observation and comparative analysis, the author explores how environmental factors, trade requirements, and cultural needs shaped the development of maritime technology. 'Last Days of Mast & Sail' remains an essential resource for historians, ship modelers, and enthusiasts of nautical heritage, offering a deep dive into the functional beauty and structural complexity of the age of sail. This authoritative text captures the spirit of a bygone era, serving as a vital bridge between traditional seamanship and modern maritime scholarship.This work has been selected by scholars as being culturally important, and is part of the knowledge base of civilization as we know it.
