Site Description
The Steamship Historical Society of America (SSHSA) is an independent organization dedicated to the history of engine-powered vessels. Beginning with the transition from sail to steam power and the industrial age up to the present day, SSHSA's collections cover a broad scope of US and world maritime history. Our collections include photographs and art, ship plans and blueprints, paper ephemera, maritime china, and models, as well as a maritime reference library. We're open to the general public and our members by appointment.
