Ever since the Bonhoome Richard sank ff Flamborough head after deeating H.M.S. Serapis in 1779, there has been speculation about her appearance. Contemporary paintings and engravings are inccurate, manuscript records are setchy, and the original plans have not surived. over the last 200 years the evidence has become dispersed and is now to be found in public and private collections in France, in England and in America. Because Bonhomme Richard was a French ship lent by Louis XVI to captain John Paul Jones of the young American Navy it required an unusual combination of talents to attempot the reconstruction; knowledge of where to look for the clues ; access to both French and English- language archives, a knowledge of the ships of the French East India Company; the ability to represent the evidence visually, in a style which is both clear and interesting; and a historian's skill to weigh facts which are sometimes conflicting and place them within the context of the late 18th century. In this book Jean Boudriot has called on the talents of many people, from both sides of the atlantic to ahieve the goal which he had set: nothing less than bringing to life the wreck of a ship that lies in the deep waters of the North sea, reconstructing it timber by timber in a sucession of drawings and showing us for the first time in more than two hundred years the true appearance of the Bonhomme Richard on that fateful day in September 1779.

Couverture rigide. Condition: Comme neuf. Edition originale. Paris 1992. -- 1 Volume/1. -- as new -- Clothbound & Dust Jacket. 32 x 24,5 cm )( 2095 gr ).------ VIII-374 pages with nearly 100 illustrations and iconographic material. 1 double folding plate. ************************* "" In 1737, Blaise Ollivier, Master Shipwright a…t Brest, was ordered by Maurepas, the French Minister of the navy, to go to Engnand and Holland in order to find out everything possible about how ships were build there, and what France might usefully imitate. Ollivier's secret mission lasted nearly five months, during which time he visited all the major naval dockyards of both country except Plymouth. At the conclusion he wrote a 360-page report entitled "Remarks on the navies of the English and the Dutch", discussing everything he had seen in meticulous details, evaluting English and Dutch practices and comparing them with techniques used in France, illustrating his findings with 13 sheets of drawings and plans. Blaise ollivier's report provides a remarkable insight into shipbuilding in the 1730's, a period about which relatively little is know. The book containt the full texte of the "Remarks" in both the original French and in translation, fully annotated and with a lenghly explanatory introduction. It is lavishly illustrrated with nearly 100 contemporary engraving, plans, ship draughts and other iconographic material."" ********************* ref 42.

Many illustrated. 16 fplding plates.************************* '' Jean Boudriot is an exceptional Frenchman. Originally an architect, he i…s an outstanding draughtsman and in only a few years' time became the first specialist in 17th and 18th century naval architecture. He was first interested in the study of French statutory arms, on which he published four books that were accepted as authorities. In 1960, he moved on to studying naval archeology. J. Boudriot's first studies on naval guns, published in 1969 in Neptunia, are true revelations for amateurs. Between 1973 and 1977, he published the four volumes of "The 74 GUN SHIP" thus creating the Boudriot myth. Since then, he has dedicated his time to scouring the archives in Paris in winter, and to drawing in Charente in summer. For our utmost pleasure, Jean Boudriot regularly publishes the monographs and historical studies that constitute the French Naval Archeology Collection. Boudriot is both an author and a publisher. He also teaches the weekly naval archeology seminar that takes place in the Musée de la Marine, and gives numerous lectures, most of them in the Sorbonne. He is a talented speaker and hearing him speak on his topic is an enchanting event '' ************************* Contents : I. ADMINISTRATION OF THE PORTS AND DOCKYARDS 1. General organisation 2.

Couverture rigide. Condition: Comme neuf. Edition originale. Paris 1987. full blue-grey cloth binding & Dust jacket . 31 x 24 cm . Contents : 1 Softbound text 64 pages + Set of 26 plates at 1:48 scale . *********************** This book deals with a vessel belonging to the early navy of the United States of America. The ship won… fame during the American Revolutionary War under the command of the famous captain John Paul Jones. A former East India Company 900-ton ship, it was repurchased by Louis XVI in order for John Paul Jones to take its command. Le Bonhomme Richard (whose name is an homage to Benjamin Franklin 's Poor Richard's Almanack) headed up a division in a very bold privateer campaign on the English coasts. This campaign ended in a violent and spectacular fight against the English vessel SERAPIS and its capture in September 1779. The goal of this monograph is a reconstruction of Le Bonhomme Richard in its most genuine form. Jean Boudriot was the only person capable of doing so, with his intricate knowledge of the East India Company's navy. He presents here a vessel built in France but sailing under the Stars and Stripes, thus furthering our knowledge of the French navy at the time of the American Revolutionary War. "" ********************** TEXT SUMMARY : - John Paul Jones, US NAVY vessel captain - The battle of Cape Flaniborough - Remarks on reconstructing Le Bonhomme Richard - Commentaries on the plates - Rigging rules - Guns - Note on metal works - Marks and flags, paint - Presentations of models - The designs are intended to facilitate construction of the framework. ******************** PLATES : - Frame, waterlines, sections - Wooded frame ; structure - Layout of the structure of the hull, drawing of all frames at 1:48 scale - Design of decks - Cross and longitudinal sections - Ship's boat, anchors, guns - Fittings - Masts and spars, rigging, sails - Definition of the hull at 1:64 scale.
