A Window Into The World of Sails
The Edwin Fox provides a window into the world of sail. She was part of the great global movement of people and goods in the second half of the nineteenth century.
As one of the few surviving ships of her era she has been the subject of several research projects in the past 10 years.
Dr Kurt Bennet’s PhD on the transmission of British Colonial ship design used the Edwin Fox as an example:
Rina Ash used the Edwin Fox as a basis for a PhD in 3D design in museums. By laser scanning the hull she built an interactive 3D model of the ship.
Canadian Academics Adrian Shubert and Boyd Cothran wrote a book about the role of the Edwin Fox in globalisation. You can buy a copy from our shop.
