Product Description
MEDEA: The Classic Steam Yacht
By Craig Arnold
The colorful past of the Medea, launched in 1904, offers a look at yachting's golden era—the Age of the Steam Yacht. It was a time of leisure and luxury for those who could afford such splendid playthings, but this handsome vessel also served three nations in two world wars, patrolling against U-Boats in the North Sea and serving as a commando base. Today she still steams as part of the fleet of historic ships at the San Diego Maritime Museum.
(1994) 5 1/2" x 8 1/4", 228 pages, 89 photos
ISBN 0-944580-08-4 (paper)
