Excellent Pictures and Clever ideas. Many have rode the tides of time and probably will for centuries to come. Book state Vol. I and II but it seems to be different. Just 1 book and a WHOLE lota information. Would DEFINITELY buy again. Gunna read, grab many ideas and then re-gift it to a retired boat Captian in Louisiana, maybe. Seller put 4 books in a bag and USPS apparently had a flat tire and used this bag for a wheel chock. The BEST book made it, others didnt fare well. Still-👍 ❇❇❇❇❇!!!!!
