I really enjoyed this book. Ruhlman spends enough time on the process and craft to make it worthwhile. Too often such books are too much about the people and not what they do and how they do it. This book was a bit biased in that direction but not so much that I skipped a lot of it. What would have helped were a few more illustrations. A visual glossary in particular. Some of the terms are unfamiliar: Garboard? I know a bit about boats and ships but some of the terminology is unique to this craft. So the glossary would have been helpful.

Read this years ago in hardback. This was a gift for an aspiring fine woodworker friend. Ruhlman is a writer of the first order. Highly recommend his other work.

im nearly done with this book,and ill tell ya,,what a book it is.

its a enthralling story about a shipyard and the boats they build. it tells about the boat shop,and nearly what it might feel like being/working in one. i for one would love to have a job in one,,money or no.(being disabled,,it aint gonna happen)

the boats they build are amazing,and the writer describes them in a way that i can imagine what it will look like even before i check out the pictures.

the best part of this book,,is its a true story.

if there is a boat lover in your life,,or you happen to enjoy all things boat,,this book will not disapoint.

buy it and enjoy,

Ruhlman is an exceptional writer. He has the ability to communicate technical subjects clearly, involving the reader in the techniques and the passions of the artisans he writes about. An excellent book.
