About this book/synopsis: Merchant Ships of the World in Colour will present in several volumes a pictorial survey of the merchant ship, whether liner, tramp steamer, collier or coaster, and its development during the last 100 years. Each book describes the vessels of a single period, illustrating a representative selection, and provides details of construction, ownership, performance and other features. A special feature of each book is the 80 pages of colour plates by the author, which supply a unique coverage of details such as liveries, funnel marks and houseflags. The period covered by the present volumes was one of spectacular development and dramatic contrast. The Great War brought to an end a period of intense competition, reflected in a rapid increase in the size of individual liners; later, during the Twenties, a more restrained style emerged, less lavishly appointed and more suited to a less affluent world. The styles of these two periods, separated by the anonymous, camouflage-conscious years of the war, were quite distinct, the post-war years bringing a range of new shapes and profiles. To these, the by now emergent diesel engine made its own contribution, many of the early motorships having no funnel. The author at the time of publication was Vice-President of the World Ship Society and a member of the Belgian Nautical Research Association. He was a consultant on ship design and a well-known author and artist on maritime subjects.
