A Hand Book of Practical Shipbuilding By J. D. MacBRIDE COMPLETE handbook on modern steel ship construction. It begins with ship- [ \ yard organization, and follows the work through step by step with detailed ex- planations and copious notes on the duties of each worker. The progress of the ship is traced from the time the first keel plate is laid, through the construction of the hull, the launching and fitting out of the propelling machinery and other equipment. Every tool used in the shipyard is written up in non-technical language which the aver- age mechanic can easily understand. It is a complete work by a practical man dealing entirely with the practical side of shipbuilding, and will enable the ship worker to obtain a firm grasp on the things that are going on around him daily.
