Trawling
This book is the first comprehensive study of trawling in Britain.
Fishermen, the Fishing Industry and the Great War at Sea
This book examines the scale and scope of the largely forgotten role played for the Admiralty by 3000 armed fishing vessels, 39,000 fishermen and many coastal communities during the Great War in the unrelenting struggle against mines and U-boats. It is a story largely forgotten in the recent centenary commemorations.
Viola
Viola is the sole surviving Hull steam trawler from the huge fleet which put 'fish & chips' on Britain's plates more than a hundred years ago. In this account, maritime historians Robb Robinson and Ian B. Hart lead us from her ancestry and origins in the Victorian and Edwardian North Sea fishery - vividly describing life in the most dangerous industry of its time - through her Great War service as a U-boat hunter and minesweeper, and on to her careers hunting seals and whales in the Southern Ocean before her final abandonment in South Georgia.
