Product Information
This survey of more than 1400 memorials records both high and low points in Britain's maritime history, from the Dark Ages to the present day. Entries commemorate shipping disasters, lifeboat losses, and the dead of two world wars, but there are also others celebrating the builders of great vessels, lighthouse engineers, explorers and merchants. The survey offers insights into Britain's maritime history, telling of heroism, battles, discovery, fire, piracy, murder, mayhem and even cannibalism.Product Identifiers
