Description

This exceedingly rare softcover edition of 'The Shipbuilder' was printed in Spring of 1911 as a limited edition special focused exclusively on the building of White Star Line's new Olympic and Titanic.

It is absolutely jam packed with technical information, photographs, and deck plans detailing every facet of the construction of the two behemoth liners.

My favorite part is all the vendor advertisements proudly exclaiming the use/installation of their products onboard Titanic; including a particularly striking one for the Welin Davit company whose product would soon play an important role in Titanic's tragic story.
