Canoe Travelling: Log of a Cruise on the Baltic and Practical Hints on Building and Fitting Canoes
Canoe Travelling is a sporting travel log and building manual by Warington Baden-Powell, published in London by Smith, Elder and Co. in 1871, written for amateur paddlers who wanted to build and fit their own canoes. Its pictures are plain line drawings: a sailing canoe profile with a measured scale bar, a rigged canoe on the water, wheel and axle diagrams, and stern and bow fittings. A designer could take clean technical draftsmanship and the look of Victorian patent-style figure labelling.
