This book discusses the reconstruction of the plans for the historic steamship Savannah, the first vessel to successfully cross the Atlantic Ocean under steam power. It details the inaccuracies found in previous models and illustrations, aiming to provide an authentic representation based on available historical documentation.  The content focuses on the meticulous research undertaken to correct previous misconceptions about the design and specifications of the Savannah. Chapelle utilizes primary sources, including the ship's logbook and a contemporary French report, to reconstruct the ship's dimensions, sailing capabilities, and structural features. The book is highly technical, highlighting the evolution of steam technology and maritime engineering in the early 19th century while emphasizing the historical significance of the Savannah's voyages and her role in advancing transatlantic steam travel. The overall aim is to create an accurate scale model that pays homage to this pioneering vessel’s contributions to maritime history.
