Hersham: Ian Allan, 2008. Being an island nation, the United Kingdom has an extensive network of regular ferry services employing a wide spectrum of craft types and sizes. From large short-sea ferries maintaining open sea route links to continental Europe and Ireland, to numerous inter-island ferries providing all-year-round access to and between offshore communities, these vessels are an intrinsic part of our maritime history. In the sheltered waters of the coasts and river estuaries, ferries provide the means to reach inaccessible locations, avoiding long, circuitous road routes, while closer to the major cities they operate rapid and frequent schedules for commuter traffic.

This excellent new book concentrates on a period of great transition in ferry shipping, from the 1950s to the early 1970s. It… Read More
