Lodestar Library is an irregular series of compact, high quality yet highly affordable editions of the interesting, the unusual, and the downright eccentric in nautical writing over the last century and more. Not just your ‘usual suspects’, these are authors you may not have heard of, but whose works we think really merit a place on your bookshelf. Each book is attractively set in a typeface befitting its era, on a good cream bookwove paper; has a robust hardcover binding blocked in gold on the spine, and also on the front with our signature Albert Strange canoe yawl; and has a laminated jacket. The titles are numbered, discreetly, on the spine. We have departed from convention by not carrying an illustration on the front of the jacket; instead, we have a little ‘word-picture’ from the contents, which is perhaps just as effective. Wouldn’t you say?
Each title 190x135mm trim size, hardcover with laminated jacket, price £12.
