Fifty Ships That Changed the Course of History: A Nautical History of the World by Ian Graham
anna_hepworth's review against another edition
What I read of this before I had to return it to the library is fascinating -- lots of specific detail. However, I really don't know enough about boats/ships to have retained very much, because there was too much detail on things that I glossed over. It also seemed biased in which aspects of history were mentioned, but that might be my lack of understanding of naval history coming out.
No rating, because I don't remember enough of it to actually say whether it is any good.
