Hardcover. Etat : Good. VINTAGESTAN BOOKS Title: Lloyds Register of Shipping 1760 to 1960 by George Blake Summary: The book documents how a simple registry created to serve insurance underwriters evolved over two centuries into the worlds first leading ship classification society. It traces the interplay between maritime commerce, technological change (wood iron/steel, sail steam motor), and regulatory/technical standardization embodied by LR. This makes it a valuable historical source on shipping, naval architecture, marine safety and global trade. As a reference: the Register and its accompanying surveys became a rich source of data on vessels their build, ownership, operation, and ultimate fate. For maritime historians, genealogists, economic historians, the data is priceless. Many later historical studies rely heavily on the Registers volumes. Moreover: the book helps understand how modern classification societies and standards for ship safety, construction, maintenance evolved. What started as a convenience for insurers gradually became a cornerstone of maritime risk-management and technical oversight.
