Shipbuilding of extra-European peoples, essays and plans, Volums 1 and 2

My previous post provided a link to only the second volume of "Essai sur la construction navale des peuples extra-européens : ou, Collection des navires et pirogues construits par les habitants de l'Asie, de la Malaisie, du Grand Océan et de l'Amérique by Pâris, Edmond, 1806-1893".
I did some more searching and found links to both volumes.
The books provide plans and pictures of many ships, in enough detail to build models of them.
Volume 1
Essai sur la construction navale des peuples extra-europeens : ou, Collection des navires et pirogues construits par les habitants de l'Asie, de la Malaisie, du Grand Ocean et de l'Amerique : Paris, Edmond, 1806-1893 : Free Download, Borrow, and Streaming : Internet Archive
Volume 2
Essai sur la construction navale des peuples extra-europeens : ou, Collection des navires et pirogues construits par les habitants de l'Asie, de la Malaisie, du Grand Ocean et de l'Amerique : Paris, Edmond, 1806-1893 : Free Download, Borrow, and Streaming : Internet Archive

The author, Edmund Paris, took part in early 19th c. French explorations of the Pacific Ocean and recorded his observations of the ships and boats that he observed, rose to the rank of Admiral, and upon retirement from active naval service became the curator of the Musée National de la Marine.
He wrote several books about traditional and contemporary naval technologies, many of which are of interest to model builders interested in both the sailing ship era and the early steam era.
