A behind-the-scenes look at boats The fifth title in our How... series takes to the waves to reveal the wonders of ships and boats : how they do what they do, what they're used for and how they've changed over time. Featuring dazzling artwork by James Gulliver Hancock, spreads will focus on ships big and small and of all shapes and sizes : from rowing boats, sailing ships and container ships to giant cruise liners, pirate ships and deep sea submarines.
