Download or read book The Lawson History of the America s Cup written by Winfield Martin Thompson and published by Sheridan House, Inc.. This book was released on 1986 with total page 612 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This year's 150th anniversary of the America's Cup provides a unique, never again to be repeated opportunity to purchase a copy of the most famous book on the Cup, one that is considered the official and most detailed history of the first 50 years. Published originally in 1902 in a limited and numbered edition of only 3,000 copies, the book is almost impossible to find and even used copies easily cost $1,500 or more. An exquisite, limited and numbered reprint of only 1,500 copies was published by Sheridan House in 1986. It went quickly out of print. Now quite unexpectedly a couple of dozen books have been found and are being offered for sale. This is a facsimile edition, in large format (7 [1/2] 11 [1/2]), ornately brassed on high quality buckram in the Victorian tradition. The cover is gold and white linen. Full gold edging. There are 90 illustrations, 17 of which are full-page watercolors of famous America's Cup challengers in full sail. There is also a fascinating assortment of sketches, yacht plans and race charts. A very special collector's item.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: For over 160 years the America's Cup has been the world's most prestigious race for ocean-going yachts. 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.
