Basil Lubbock THE CHINA CLIPPERS Brown, Son & Ferguson Illustrated 1957 reprint

Description: The China Clippers by Lubbock, Basil Glasgow: Brown, Son & Ferguson, Ltd., (1957). Reprint edition. A great classic vintage book about the China Clipper sailing ships of the mid-19th century by British sailor, yachtsman, and marine author Captain Alfred Basil Lubbock (1876-1944). The China Clippers were mostly fast-sailing cargo ships with tonnage of around 500 to 900 tons, used mostly for hauling opium to China (via India) and bringing back tea, silk and silver to Britain. They made enormous fortunes for the East India Company and the British Empire. Lubbock has extensively catalogued and chronicled these sailing vessels, their captains, and any noteworthy information about them. A fascinating read, and a great source of reference material. Bright blue quality cloth boards with deep gilt-stamped titles on front and spine. Illustrated with photographs, maps, and illustrations from paintings; several fold-outs. Quarto; size is 7-1/4" by 9-3/4". Has 295 pages, including appendix and index. No dust jacket. There is FREE SHIPPING to USA on this item.
