"Aluminum may be the ideal boatbuilding material: it's light economical maintenance-free nearly impervious to corrosion less easily damaged and more easily repaired than any other material used for bulding boats. It's ease of forming and working make aluminum desirable for one-off builders. Compared with wood far fewer skills and specialized tools are needed and high-quality materials are more easily found. Only a lack of information has kept aluminum from becoming the material of choice for backyard boatbuilders or small-scale professionals. Here is everything amateurs and small-scale professionals need to know to successfully build aluminum boats of almost any size or type. Information on aluminum fabrication welding and lofting including drawings for a 14-foot McKenzie River drift boat. Advanced aluminum-forming techniques and large-yacht construction are covered in detail. " . Glossary. Scores of b/w illustrations by the author including drawings and photos. Index. .

A very early and possibly unique set of polo photographs dating from the game's earliest days in Argentina a country subsequently famous for its superb record in International competitions. Invented in Persia the game was revived in India in 1863 and was brought to England by British officers in 1869. A number of Englishmen many of them younger sons of British nobility emigrated to Argentina in the latter decades of the century and around 1883 they introduced polo first played around Buenos Aires which quickly spread and became a national sport. Some of the faces in the photos offered here have a distinctly English appearance and it is not too fanciful to assume that these may indeed be some of the founders of the Argentine game. It is also possible that these are the first photographs taken of polo in Argentina.<br/><br/><br/><br/>AN HISTORIC SET OF PHOTOGRAPHS. Dale Polo at Home and Abroad p. 182 et seq unknown books‎
