Shipbuilding on the Exe
Technological autobiography of Daniel Bishop Davy (1799-1874), and a biography of his father Robert Davy (1762-1862). Both were major shipbuilders in Topsham, Devonshire, England. Robert married Grace Bisyop, and Daniel never married. "Much can be learned not only about the business carried on by this family firm but also about the economy of British shipbuilding towards the end of the age of sail. The text is preceded by a substantial introduction by the editor and there is also ... a glossary of technical terms. Modern boat- builders as well as economic and local historians will find much to interest them"--Front flyleaf of paper cover.
