About this product
Product Information
Martin Wilcox's concise and informative guide to the fishing industry will be absorbing reading for anyone who wants to learn about its history or find out about the life a fisherman and his family. In a clear and accessible way he takes readers through the technical, economic and social aspects of the story. He gives a graphic account of the development of the British fisheries through the medieval period and into the nineteenth and twentieth centuries. The themes and issues that family and local historians will need to understand in order to pursue their research are a key part of the study. He introduces the reader to the variety of national and local records that are available for genealogical research and considers the many other resources that can yield fascinating information about the industry and those who worked in it. AUTHOR: Dr Martin Wilcox is a research fellow at the University of Greenwich and he is a leading expert on the history of the British fishing industry. He has made a particular study of apprenticeship in the industry during the nineteenth century and he has published a number of articles on British trawl fisheries. Currently he is researching the victualling system of the Royal Navy in the era of Nelson and the Napoleonic Wars. He is also working on a long-term project focusing on training in the British mercantile marine in the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries. SELLING POINTS: * Concise account of the history of the British fishing industry * Guide to relevant archives, records and websites for family historians * Traces the development of the industry from medieval times to the present * Describes the lives of the fishermen and their families ILLUSTRATIONS 40 illustrations

- h***i (37)- Feedback left by buyer.Past 6 monthsVerified purchaseThe seller kindly got in touch to say the book I ordered did not meet the quality advertised due to being found to be in a poor condition at the packing stage. Unfortuntely no replacement was available and would I like to pick a book of equivalent value from the marketplace - which I did. That book arrived safely and was in the condition advertised. I have used this seller many times before and I am grateful for their quality control decission, rather than send me a damaged book. Will use again.
