This hardback, 212 page book was written by Charles Waine and published by Blackdwarf in 2018.
In his usual style, the author has discussed and explained the development of coasters from their original power source and the pioneers; through the 1930s; then through wartime and post-war, before looking at the 1960s, 1970s and 1980s.
All the writing is supported by photographs-some in colour and those very useful line drawings and deck plans.
