FOREST AND STREAM, 



[Jtey 16, 1885. 



CANOE 



THE Forest and Stream began a year ago the 

 publication of a series of papers on canoe con~ 

 struction, by Mr. W, P. Stephens, of the New York 

 C. C, widely known as an expert on canoe design 

 and building. These papers, having- appeared 

 through the year in our columns, have since been 

 rewritten, and with numerous additions are now 

 published in a handsome volume under the title of 

 "Canoe and Boat Building for Amateurs." Mr. 

 Stephens is peculiarly fitted for the preparation of 

 such a work, beginning as an amateur, and having 

 after a long experience of the difficulties attending 

 a learner, taken a prominent place among canoe 

 builders, due both to the model and workmanship 

 of his canoes. Realizing fully the difficulty of ex- 

 aining to a novice an art in itself far from easy, 



AND 



and with which he is entirely unfamiliar, the book 

 begins with a description of the various classes of 

 canoas in general use, with their main features and 

 dimensions, and definitions of the terms used in con- 

 nection with them. Numerous examples of canoes 

 are given, and in connection with them, such plain 

 instructions in designing as will enable the beginner 

 to select intelligently the proper craft for his pur- 



pose, and to plan her dimensions, details and fit- 

 tings. To this end designs of ail classes of canoes 

 are given, with full dimensions and details. The 

 object has been not merely to enable the tyro to 

 build one boat as described, but to teach him the 

 principles of designing and building in such a way 

 that he may construct such a craft as he desires, 

 following i he chapters on designing, the construc- 

 tion of a canoe is taken up in detail, the tools and 

 appliances being first clearly described, as well as 

 the various materials, after which follows the actual 

 work of building. Every operation is taken up in 

 order, from the selection of the keel to the varnish- 

 ing of the finished boat, and illustrated with numer- 

 ous diagrams. 

 ' A chapter on sails describes all the varieties in 

 use by canoeists, down to the new Mohican settee, 

 with directions for making, rigging and measuring 

 them, while the method of proportioning the sails 

 to the boat is clearly explained, all the. calculations 



BUILDING 



being worked out in detail. The many minor poiDts 

 of a canoe, paddles, steering gears, rudders, aprons, 

 and camp outfit are also described at length, while 

 a chapter is devoted to canvas canoes. 



The subject of boat building is fully treated, a 

 rowboat of the usual construction being taken as 

 an example, and described in all its parts in such a 

 manner as to make clear the principles involved, 

 and their application to any form of boat, either 

 lapstreak or carvel build. Each of the numerous 

 technical terms belonging to the subject is defined 

 clearly when it first occurs, and as the index is full 

 and complete, the book is in itself a glossary. 



In addition to the numerous diagrams in the 

 body of the work, twenty-four large plates are 

 printed on bond paper, containing the working 

 drawings of canoes for paddling, sailing, cruising 



FOR 



and racing, .with their sail plans, rowing sailing 

 boats, large canoe yawls, and various boats for 

 special purposes, such as gunning boats, yacht 

 boats, and the widely known sneakbox. 



The canoe yawl, a boat between a eanoe and a 

 yacht, is illustrated by examples of various craft, 

 from 1? to 20ft. long, and suitable for a crew of two 

 or three on a cruise. This class of boat, while little 

 known among us as yet, is admirably fitted for 

 cruising, and will meet the wants of many who 

 object to a canoe as being too small, and yet desire 

 a beat with the same excellent qualities. The boats 

 and canoes illustrated are in all cases among the 

 best of their class, tne list of canoes including Eng- 

 lish, Scotch and American craft, and are all drawn 



AMATEURS. 



to scale, so as to be available as working drawings. 

 The plates, for convenience in using, are placed 

 loose in a tough manilla envelope and accompany 

 the book.

Glens Falls, N. Y., June 15, 1884. 

 Mr. A. S, Hinds, Portland, Me.: 



Dear Sir— I have not sooner acknowledged the 

 receipt of box of "Black-Fly Cream," as r desired 

 to first test it; this I have now done on two fishing 

 trips where I found the Mosquitoes, Black Flies, 

 Punkies and Moose or Deer Flies in great abundance. 

 Although all these rests s.varmed about me, I found 

 the Cream a perfect preventive against their bites 

 when it was applied to face, hands, ears and neck. 

 For many years I have sought after the insect, re- 

 pellent, and have tried all manner of compounds, 

 but yours is the most thorough, at the same time 

 cleanly and not disagreeable. 



Yours truly, A. Nelson Cheney.
