	Model ships have been known to stop grown men in their tracks, such is the infinite skill of, and the attention to detail paid by, the modelmaker. This beautifully published book explores the role played by model ships throughout maritime history: the wide variety of models (Ancient Egyptian funerary boats, Napoleonic PoW models, shipbuilders' models, ships in bottles etc.) and the different purposes for which they were built (including more recent uses such as tank and wind-tunnel testing and film work). Content includes modern modellers in UK and USA, a list of places to see ship models worldwide, index and index of ship and installation names. B/w & colour plates. HB. 192pp.
