The Badminton Library of Sports and Pastimes - Yachting Vol II

Book excerpt: Alfred E. Watson's second volume of "The Badminton Library of Sports and Pastimes: Yachting". It is comprised of a number of articles on the topic of yachting that vary in subject from notable yachting clubs to yachting around the world. This book is highly recommended for those with an interest in yachting and its history, and it would make for a worthy addition to collections of allied literature. Contents include: "Royal Yachts and English Yacht Clubs", "Scottish Clubs", "Irish Clubs", "The Thames Club and Windermere", "Yachting on the Norfolk Broads", "Yachting in America", "Yachting in New Zealand", "Foreign and Colonial Yachting", et cetera. Many vintage books such as this are increasingly scarce and expensive. We are republishing this volume now in an affordable, high-quality edition complete with the original text and artwork.
