COASTING BARGEMASTER BY BOB ROBERS

A vivid account of the romance and reality of coastal trade in sailing vessels in the 1930s and 1940s. An extraordinary story because it takes place within living memory, and yet it portrays a way of life that has been completely obliterated by the advance of technology. For the seaman this is fascinating stuff, and for the non seaman there is plenty of interest in the picture drawn of life in Britain between the wars. Foreword by Des Sleightholme. Illustrated. Pb. 176pp.
