I was once bidding on fleabay for 3 books and it began to go beyond what seemed originally to be a bargain, so I stepped back.
Soon after, a member on this forum was telling us what a bargain he'd got.
He'd been bidding against me!
Happens to me ALL the time. . .
With 25,000 members on here and not a very large ship building community, I would imagine it happens a lot more than we realize. 
Hello everyone,
I just picked this book up at the local Goodwill Book Store for $14. The book is not in very good condition, but the contents are what I found interesting. The United States Navy: From Revolution To Date. The book was published in 1917. There are lots of great pictures of American Navy ships up to early in the twentieth century.

Great find! I love the photos of the old battlewagons.

Often those large glass plate negatives are astonishing in detail and quality.
