This beautifully illustrated history of the Michigan-based company and its most significant powerboats begins in 1922, when the mercurial Christopher Columbus Smith and his three sons formed Chris Smith & Sons Boat Company.
Archival photography provides an evocative historical context and images of key personalities, while the history also discusses the business climates in which Chris-Craft operated - including a tenuous alliance with Gar Wood - who split from the Smiths to form his own acclaimed boatworks - and concurrent products introduced by Gar Wood and other competitors.
