Charles E Nicholson and His Yacht

by Franco Pace (Photographer)

This magnificent book is a celebration of the work of Charles E Nicholson, the most important British yacht designer of the twentieth century. The stunning photos of internationally renowned Italian photographer Franco Pace, capture the grace and elegance of these well known yachts sailing and racing today. In a fascinating preface, yacht historian William Collier chronicles the development of Nicholson's designs from the 1890s to the start of the Second World War. Together they have combined a gloriously lavish tribute to the scion of the Nicholson family, which will be of enduring interest.
