Abstract
The Coos Bay Times of January 17, 1953, devoted an entire page to some pictures and an article entitled "Coos Bay's Founding Era of Wooden Ships Makes Lively History." In conclusion the story stated: "But all that is past now. It lives only in long memories and pages of history." There can be little doubt of the truth of this statement, but neither the memories nor the pages of history have been compiled in such a fashion as to be available to one who would relive the days when Coos Bay-built ships were frequent visitors to the seaports of the Pacific Coast and to foreign waters as well. It is the aim of this study to remedy the situation.
