Every four to six weeks we publish illustrated lists of maritime books, documents, manuscripts and ephemera here on our website. If you wish to be informed when these lists are posted, sign up for our mailing list by going to the “Keep Informed” section at the bottom of the page, and filling in your name and email address. When a new list is posted, you will receive an email from us. Please bear in mind that many of the items in our lists sell within a few days, so it’s important to read and respond quickly!

Maritime List 379 – Pretty Darned Good
September 1, 2026
Every once in a while the stars align. Not much else to say about this list, a selection of 35 rare books and manuscripts assembled from recent road trips. It’s a pretty darned good lot of material, in my humble estimation.
(By the way, I think people should stop saying they’re “humbled” when they receive recognition or an award. It implies that they were conceited jerks prior to that recognition. Bad optics in my humble estimation.)
As usual, we will pay postage on all items shipped within the US. To order a book, please send an email to us at tenpound@tenpound.com listing item number, author and title. Best not to telephone, as I’m frequently out of the office and rely on time-stamped emails to keep everything first come, first served.
