Fore & Aft Craft and Their Story by E. Keble Chatterton

This book is a real treasure for sailing ship and yacht aficionados. It received rave reviews when it was published in 1922. "Mr Keble Chatterton's work is a labour of love. In this more than usually handsome volume he traces the history of the fore-and-aft in a most engaging manner. A sumptuous volume," wrote the Glasgow Citizen, for example. This is a reproduction of the book as scanned by the Internet Archive, minus the index. (18,1 MiB, PDF, 344 pages)
