This preowned, softback book with 118 pages was written by Derek Coombe and published by Pennant Books in 2007.
The book takes us back in time and on a most interesting journey around the Kent coast and along the Thames.
We begin with the very important work of the colliermen. This is followed by a section describing the Thames Watermen and lightermen; followed by Ferrymen and Medway watermen.
We read about Hufflers, Hovellers and seekingmen; then lifeboatmen and salvagers; brickies, chalkies muddies and dockies , and finally shipwrights.
the text is interspersed with a few black and white images.
This copy is in very good condition.
