A very good illustrated naval Dictionary in three languages with english / french / german wording

FROM KEEL TO TRUCK
DE LA QUILLE A LA POMME DE MAT
Vom Kiel zum Flaggenkopf


by Capt. H. PAASCH

included are wooden ships, Iron and Steel ships, but also steam, machinery, equipment, sundries etc.
important are the illustrated parts with numberings in the drawings, so you can find the correct term of one element in three languages.
At the end of the book you can find three Index of all terms in the three languages.
All together more than 10.000 terms are listed and shown.

Highly recommended, although it is already more than 100 years old.

The book was republished or reprinted several times in several countries (mine is from germany), so you can find cheaper copies.
I do not recommend the latest paperback version, due to the fact, that the size was reduced, so also the drawings are smaller, but better than nothing.
