Publisher: Heritage Trail Publications Ltd | Date published: 03/01/2004 DescriptionFor nearly a millennia Britannia has ruled the waves and over many centuries tales have been told of great sea heroes, from military commanders like Admiral Lord Nelson, to the swashbuckling rogues of Tudor England. Marvel at the 'Victory' and the 'Warrior', or experience Second World War conditions aboard HMS Belfast or HMS Cavalier. Anticipate a leisurely trip on one of the last operating British paddle steamers, or feel the claustrophobic chill inside a cold war submarine. This book explores 30 preserved vessels, each article comprising of a colour photograph, an historical overview, and an information panel containing opening times, grid reference, address, telephone number, and web site details (where applicable). This work also contains a brief overview of 9 other major maritime attractions. NB--The 'Adobe Reader' version of this title is not suitable for use with 'Adobe Reader for PalmOS'.
