The Schooner: Its Design and Development from 1600 to the Present From its emergence in Holland in the early 17th century to its present renaissance as a luxury charter vessel, the schooner embodies the romance of the sea.

This comprehensive history describes in detail the development of the beautiful rig and all if its variations. Heavily illustrated with plans, paintings, and photographs. David R. MacGregor.
