Tamers of the Sea ... From the French ... by Mrs. Cashel Hoey. Illustrated
Edmond Neukomm's popular history of Viking voyaging, translated from the French by Mrs. Cashel Hoey and published in London by Sampson Low in 1897 for general readers. Twenty-four tinted wood-engraved plates show longships under sail, helmeted crews on deck, landfalls on wooded rivers and ice-bound coasts — useful for ship rigging, dragon prows, shields and figure groups in ink-line shading.
