About the Author
Reviews
"Miller's painstaking style has produced plates that are, in effect, rendered, three-dimensional working drawings; one can literally count the number of planks in a vessel's hull. . . . precisely what the historian and research wants to see. . . . the paintings are marvelous simply to look at."—John McKay, International Journal of Maritime History, December 2011
"Visually spectacular."—Tracey Sherlock, Vancouver Sun, December 2011
"This 200-page coffee-table style art book is a very special pleasure to browse through from beginning to end, and a highly recommended addition to personal, community, and academic Art History and Marine History collections."—Midwest Book Review
"Miller has the talent to carry off both painting and text. . . . Miller's well-paced narratives reopen a lost world of navigation . . . Miller's paintings are beautifully rendered as they reimagine the ships according to the historical record. . ."—Mike Dillon, City Living, October 2011
"A handsome coffee-table book that tells the story of world exploration . . . Miller, a maritime artist and illustrator living in Vancouver, B.C., wrote the text and illustrated the book with almost 100 of his own beautifully detailed paintings."—Mary Ann Gwinn, The Seattle Times, September 2011
