Description of  Miniature Merchant Ships: A Guide to Waterline Modelling in 1/1200 Scale

Building 1/1200 scale ship models is a branch of ship modelling with, among other things, the advantage that a varied collection of models demonstrating, for example, changes and progress in ship design and construction can be displayed in a comparatively small space. In the first part of this book, after discussing research, where to obtain data and plans, tools and materials, the author describes in detail the construction of these models, illustrating the text with photographs and diagrams, many of which related to deck and other fittings.
