Very interesting lesson! nearly 2 hours of history

Grant Walker of the Naval Academy Museum explains the history and architecture of ships using the museum's original British dockyard model collection.
This lecture was part of the museum's "War of 1812 & the Chesapeake: A School House at Sea."

Tanks for the link I learn a few thing

Real instructive was a bit surprise that he mention the build of the British 3 decker on the lake Ontario the HMS St.Laurence. And to bad he did not show an example of the galley use on the lake Champlain but overall excellent video
