Saw a piece on PBS last night about Salem Ma. and the China trade ships in the 1700's. Supposedly the crew on those were less than twenty men and since a gun crew consisted of 4 men, that was a luxury they couldn't afford. So they created replicas out of wood to scare away the bad guys. Any truth to that? Paul H in Hebron CT where the flea markets are not open. |
