The story of floating funds. From raft to submarine

Man conquered the water element many millennia ago. In the legends and legends of all peoples, swimming funds left their wet trace. The great Homer in the Iliad and Odyssey writes about ships and sailors. And these are no longer river boats, but sea ships! The ancient Greek hero Jason goes for the golden rune at the legendary Argo. In the gloomy kingdom of Hades, on a boat covered with skin, the elder Haron is transported through the ice waters of the Styks of the dead ...
The task of this exciting book does not include the presentation of the entire history of shipbuilding. Such work is by the power of only the staff of historians and will fit in a multi -volume publication. After all, even a simple listing of only the names of the types of ships that existed at different times and among different peoples will take several pages.
The author briefly, interestingly and informatively tells the history of swimming funds from the raft to the submarine
