I just came across a very favorable review of this title in the International Journal of Maritime History v.15:1 June, 2003 pg.230

Age of Sail: The International Annual of the Historic Sailing Ship

London : Conway Maritime Press ISSN 0-85177-925-5

Has anyone read this periodical? If you did what Do you think of it?

Thanks

I finally got the person who is th archivist for the maritime collection here to look at it. The Library os getting a subscription. Can't wait till it gets here! :(

When things settle down I am seriously thinking of getting that Pirates of the Caribbean book. :)

I got the Pirates of the Caribbean book...it's pretty good overall, but with a heavy focus on the Elizabethan raiders like Drake and Hawkins. Not a whole lot in there on the early 18th century guys post-Q.A.War.

What is good about it is that it's written by a Spanish historian, and the info is culled from Spanish primary sources, so it's a very interesting viewpoint. Other side of the coin, so to speak.
