We have a great guide by Amanda Bennett for his but started with just grabbing a stack of books from the library.
Books we've read.
SHIP - David Macaulay - about the Caravels from the time of Christopher Columbus. The digs and research that have given us insight into the making of such marvelous structures. The whole process from beginning to end! We just loved this book and it gave us a real feel for the ship and voyage of a bye gone era that was such a key part of history- the discovery of our dear country.
Yankee Ships and Yankee Sailors by James Barnes -Tales of 1812
An 1897 series from the Boy Scout's - Every Boy's Library |
