"Ed Monk: and the Tradition of Classic Boats "
by Bet Oliver.
You're in for a treat. Full of photos, line drawings, construction plans, and the history of the craft and the designer, make for an ideal look at Monk's work.Part biography, part spotlight on this well known designer's creations and accomplishments. Drawn from those who knew Ed Monk and those who own and have built boats to these designs.From the back cover:
"The comfortable and beautiful boats designed by Ed Monk have been treasured for cruising, working and living aboard since the 1920s. Thousands of his fish-boats, sailboats, runabouts, tugs and power yachts have been built, mostly on the Pacific coast, and often by well-known builders such as McQueen, Philbrook, Grandy, Wakefield and Tollefson. Monk's books, his many popular articles in maritime magazines, and the reminiscences of those who worked with him highlight his practical philosophy of design. His boats were intended to handle the often rough and dangerous waters between California and Alaska, as well as the open ocean, in ease and safety."

The Story of Jeep by Patrick Foster
Pat Foster's award-winning The Story of Jeep is back - bigger, more colorful, and more complete than ever. With updates on models from 2000 through 2005, Foster's new tribute to "the world's greatest fighting machine" is an essential part of any Jeep lover's library.
In this history-packed, full-color second edition, the country's preeminent Jeep writer and historian details Jeep's roller-coaster history, from the early war-time prototypes, to the Kaiser and AMC eras, to the big buyout by Chrysler.
With the help of more than 400 photos, Foster expertly tells the tale of how Jeep has evolved from a military workhorse, to 4x4 pioneer, to popular family hauler, all the while retaining its place as a great American icon.
Since exploding on the scene as "the world's greatest fighting machine" at the proving grounds of Camp Holabird, Maryland, in 1940, the Jeep now holds the title as perhaps one of America's most beloved vehicles. How did Jeep go from a life-saving godsend at Normandy, Inchon, and the jungles of Vietnam to the comfortable, well-built sport utility vehicle of today? Jeep historian and former Jeep salesman Patrick Foster uncovers 65 years of Jeep development with dozens of rare photographs plus a complete historical background of today's Cherokees, Wranglers and Grand Cherokees. It covers early Jeep prototypes, Jeeps of the future and a special chapter on the most desirable and collectible Jeeps of particular interest to collectors. Every Jeep made, model-by-model, is completely detailed and illustrated for simple identification.

Pair Trawling and Pair Seining: The Technology of Two-Boat Fishing by David B. Thomson
The author's broad practical experience and proved scholastic and training ability make this the most authoritative work of its kind. Liberally illustrated, this book gives factual accounts of Pareja trawling, Bull trawling, Baltic trawling, Cod pair trawling, Canadian pair seining, freshwater and midwater pair trawling, ring net fishing, two boat purse seining, and the technique of fleet operation. With the extension of national sea limits and in modern conditions, the higher yields and greater economies of two boat fishing will become of increasing importance. Pair fishing needs less investment in vessels, manpower, fuel and yet can be more productive than large single ship operations. In this book, David Thomson clearly provieds this point by giving practical reports from operating skippers with much technical detail. An excellent glossary and bibliography complete the book which has been laid out
In square format to give clear appreciation of the many illustrations and specifications.
