Synopsis
For forty years after the turn of last century, Willard Jackson trolled the waters off Marblehead, Massachusetts, in a custom motor launch carrying a wooden camera and a box of glass-plate negatives. His quarry? Any vessel that made its way into and out of that mecca of American sailing. Over a century later, the archive of several thousand pictures he collected stands as a one-of-a-kind record of the early development of the American yacht. Matthew Murphy, editor of WoodenBoat magazine, uses Jackson's remarkable work to trace the history of the pleasure sailboat. Each of 75 sharp, breathtaking images is accompanied by a 300-word caption.

    Another fantastic transaction. Seller was very responsive to a question I had about the item, and shipped it straight away, same day as my order. As before, the program was very well-packaged in a plastic sleeve within a padded envelope enforced with cardboard. Good doing business.

    Mark! Much thanks for my 1st Edition of Scott Fitzgerald's "All The Sad Young Me." As advertised, a very good copy mailed to me at warp speed and exceptionally well packed. We had a minor glitch, but you went above and beyond to rectify it and I could not be more please. Most professional of you and could not have asked for more. Looking forward to doing business again and only wish there were more book merchants out there as kind as you! Cheers and regards to you and yours. AAAAAAA++++++

    The book arrived faster than expected and the condition was as described (brand new). The book was packaged securely and with care. The volumes of the Minutes of the Vienna Psychoanalytic society are relatively rare and generally cost more for a used volume than what this seller was charging brand new, so I feel it was excellent value for the money. Overall I am very happy with this purchase and would definitely do business with this seller again.
