"Issued between 1978 and 1982 by Time-Life Books in the USA, The Seafarers series presents a richly illustrated exploration of maritime history across seven volumes. Each book focuses on a distinct era or vessel type, blending authoritative historical essays with vivid imagery, diagrams, and artwork. The Great Liners celebrates the golden age of ocean travel and the engineering marvels that linked continents; The East Indiamen recounts the epic voyages of trade ships that built global empires; The Ancient Mariners delves into the earliest navigators of the Mediterranean and beyond; and Fighting Sail brings to life the age of naval warfare under canvas, when sea power shaped nations.

Complementing these are The Racing Yachts, charting the evolution of yachting as both sport and spectacle; The Clipper Ships, chronicling the swift, elegant vessels that defined 19th-century maritime commerce; and The Armada, a dramatic retelling of the Spanish Armada's campaign and its impact on European history. Together, these volumes form a cohesive and visually compelling account of humanity's relationship with the sea. This collection would appeal to naval historians, maritime enthusiasts, and collectors of fine illustrated Time-Life series."
