Popularly, the nineteenth century is regarded as the century of the clipper, those magnificent vessels which plied the trade routes of the world, and which bore witness to the fine flowering of the design of these vessels.
Celebrated maritime historian David MacGregor wrote a great number of books around all classes of ships built in the nineteenth century. The David MacGregor library in the Brunel Institute at the SS Great Britain is named in his honour.
