This book comes from the author's passion for traveling, learning, and exploring new adventures. Additionally, a love ships of many types-from the US Navy, the US Coast Guard, other nations-and the contribution of all of them to the history of the United States of America.
This book's intention is to provide the reader with a guide to plan trips to the ship museums in the United States.
Although there seems to be a rather small market for "coffee-table books," this book is intended as such.
The first part is organized to list the ship museums as follows: (1) by state, (2) by city, and (3) by ship's name.
The second part contains the appendixes, which organize the ships to aid the reader as follows:
Database One listing is as follows: (1) by state, (2) by city, (3) by hull number (if it applies), (4) by page number, (5) by telephone number, (6) by email address, (7) by ship type, and (8) by information source.
Database Two listing is as follows: (1) ships name-in more than one way, for example, "USS Alabama" and "Alabama, USS"; (2) by hull number (if it applies); (3) by state; (4) by city; (5) by page number; (6) by phone number; and (7) by email address.
The sources of the information are listed in the preface of this book.
