Picturesque Harbours Photographic Memories

Personalised!

This evocative collection of archive photographs from The Francis Frith Collection shows Britain's ports and harbours during the era when wooden ships still plied for trade in and around our coasts. Travel back in time through the pages of this book and see large, busting ports like Grimsby, where fishing vessels still throng the quays; revisit picturesque fishing villages like Brixham, Robin Hood's Bay and Appledore, and see all kinds of small working craft, from schooners to smacks; explore peaceful creeks and backwaters where small boats edge lazily in and out on the tides. This stunning compilation recaptures the romance of maritime life in all its huge variety. It will provide hours of enjoyable reading and browsing.

" I ordered a book with a personalised touch (from my youngest kids to their grandma). Having the option to personalise is one of the reasons I bought it. It was promptly delivered, no fuss, no delays. An absolutely beautiful pictorial historical account of my Mum's home town, which I am sure she will be delighted with.

Thank you very much Francis Frith."
