Media Reviews
'Much of this book has been written in a barge's cabin, rolling at anchor in Yarmouth Roads, stormbound under the lee of the Yantlet Flats, waiting to load at Keadby or while lying idle in London River. I have not attempted to glorify or exaggerate this account of life in a type of sailing craft which is one of the most unique and efficient in the world. It is a life in which to my mind, the pleasantness, satisfaction and occasional thrills, calling for the more sterling qualities, far outweigh the times of hardship and frustration.' Bob Roberts
