Excellent. Could have used more color plates, but the book dealt with Durer and his times. Martin Luther nailed his theses to the Church door during this time and thus began the great splat of the Mother Church. Durer however remained a steadfast Catholic. Good book, if somewhat dated. But, so are the paintings, right???

Very good account of the very early organized Royal British Navy in the 17th century. This book is not a listing of ships, or battles, but rather a detailed description of almost every aspect of the Royal Navy at that time, including dockyards, ship design, navigational issues, pay, food, recruiting (and pressing…), rank structures etc., etc.

A great book for the Naval enthusiast!
