Exmoor Books
Drawing on the priceless collection of pictures assembled over fifty years, the vast majority of which have never been published before, John Gilman traces the history of Exmoors harbours, the characters and the vessels they sailed, from their Victorian heyday to their twentieth-century decline.
John Gilman illustrates the vast social and cultural changes that took place on Exmoors shores over the course of a single century. This remarkable book will open a window into the past, not only for the maritime historian for whom this volume will be a treasure trove of material, but for local families who prize their heritage and for all those who have come to Exmoor to enjoy its special magic.
