The art of designing vessels—that is, of drawing their forms upon paper—is old, much older than most people suppose. This books is the first one written on the subject that is intended for t"hose who take up the art for amusement and not as profession."

This article was originally published in Country Life Illustrated on December 9, 1899 giving a great description of model yachting at that time.

A Treatise on the Construction, Rigging & Handling of Model Yachts, Ships & Steamers with Remarks on Cruising & Racing Yachts and the Management of Open Boats, also lines for various models and a cutter yacht.
