How can documentary sources be used in the study and identification of wrecked ships? The case-studies are taken from research work undertaken in conjunction with archaeological projects or for books. The vessels discussed include medieval warships, a 17th-century merchantman and a 19th-century passenger liner. In all cases their stories have been brought to life through written evidence.
