This is the definitive volume on English maritime antiques. The mostly 18th and 19th century pieces actually reveal a history of early English popular culture, paying tribute to a period when England ruled the sea. Included are delicate porcelain figurines, Wedgwood plates, ornate silver boxes, bronze statuettes, glass paintings and, even ships in a bottle.
