This sumptuous book, now in its 7th edition, tells the story of the Cup from the very first race between America and Great Britain in 1851, to the 2010 Oracle win over Alinghi, which took the Cup back to San Francisco, culminating with the fierce battle between Oracle Team USA and Emirates Team New Zealand three years later in 2013. The book presents a unique collection of beautiful paintings depicting dramatic scenes from every match since 1851, and enlarged details of each painting reveal the artist's incredible attention to detail. As well as the superb paintings by Tim Thompson, all of which have been rescanned to capture the subtle colours and details of the originals and which form the core of the book, there are drawings and specifications of each America's Cup class yacht, along with maps of the Cup courses and line illustrations of every competing yacht. Author Ranulf Rayner describes the battles of the finalists from the very first race in 1851 (both on and off the water), and provides detailed descriptions of the boats themselves, including the latest technologies used to create the sensational racing machines they are today.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The America's Cup has been the world's most prestigious race for ocean-going yachts since the first contest was held between America and Great Britain in 1851. This superb book tells the story of the Cup from the beginning, presenting a unique collection of beautiful paintings of a dramatic scene from every match since 1851, culminating in the shocking 2003 victory of the Swiss syndicate, Alinghi, over the previously undefeated New Zealand team. Enlarged details of each painting reveal the artist's incredible attention to detail. There are also maps of the courses, and line illustrations of every competing yacht. The artist, Tim Thompson, started painting the sea when he lived with his parents on the tiny island of Hern in the Channel Islands in England. His fine technique is reminiscent of former great marine artists and his paintings, noted for their superb expression of wind and light, are in demand throughout the world. After recognizing the young artist's amazing talent and arranging a successful exhibition of Thompson's work at Cowest on the Isle of Wight, where the yacht America had first won the Cup, Rayner commissioned Thompson to paint the 26 large canvasses for the first edition of this book -- The Paintings of the America's Cup 1851-1987. More paintings portraying all the matches since 1987, and with accompanying text and illustrations, have since been added.
