A pictorial appreciation of the boats and fishing
communities of Scotland and North-East England from the
1950s to the present. Gloria Wilson's unique collection of
photographs has never been published before. With
information on boat design and construction, it includes
some rarely seen naval architects' line plans. From
attractive Scottish wooden-hulled craft to recent steel
boats, and with many shore scenes including Mallaig herring
port, Peterborough harbour reconstruction, fish auctions and
fishermen net and boat-building, this book offers a glimpse
into a bygone age. Finally, it considers the work being done
to balance fish conservation with profitable fishing, a
pressing issue for the fishing industry of the twenty-first
century.
