                        I came across these on Amazon and ordered them for the book shelf ( yes the one sagging) I don't know if they are new press or just reprints, but they look rather well, I have two of them already on Chinese Fighting ships, very good series well Illus. nice price.

                        "British Napoleonic Ship-Of-The-Line $10.17
                        (New Vanguard, 42)

                        "Pirate Ship 1660-1730 $10.47
                        (New Vanguard, 70)

                        "American Heavy Frigates 1794-1826"
                        (New Vanguard, 72)

                        I'll add these next month.

                        Viking Longship
                        (New Vanguard 47)

                        Renaissance War Galley 1470-1590
                        (New Vanguard)

                        Spanish Galleon 1530-1690

                        What's this?? No battleships, cruisers or destroyers?

                        As for me, I'm still patiently awaiting the long sought-after book, "Armed Garbage Scows of the South Pacific".

                        I know, I know, I should switch to non-caffeinated beverages. :-)
