Book Reviews for the Book of Wooden Boats, Volume III:
From WoodenBoat magazine, "Mendlowitz has set the standard for wooden-boat photography with pleasing angles, pristine backgrounds, and soft, delicate early morning or late-evening light--or dramatic mid-day skies."
From the Wall Street Journal, "...a carpentered vessel of any age can be glorious to behold--especially in darkest winter, especially when photographed by Benjamin Mendlowitz."
From Rangefinder magazine, "For a yachtsman, it's a walk down memory lane, and yet another salty addition to his home library. For the photographer, the book, along with Volumes I and II, and the resilient calendar/screensaver/t-shirt franchise Mendlowitz has created around his imagery--and the images themselves, textbook samples of maritime photography at it's best..."
From Yachting magazine, "Mendlowitz's photography is stunning, capturing the essence of what it is that makes a yacht classic...Bray's insightful text breathes life into the vessels and, combined with the photography, makes these boats seem as alive as those who sail them."
