Tales from the Tyne by Richard E Keys
Features true stories from the days when the Tyne was one of Britain's busiest ports at the heart of the great North-East coalfield. Highlighting the rivers' shipping history, this book includes chapters on the passenger steamers, which linked Newcastle with London, the hard-working tugs, the floating hospital and the ever-busy coal staithes.
Dick Keys is a retired merchant seaman and North-East maritime historian. He is author of many books, including a Dictionary of Sailing Ships. Ken Smith is a writer of maritime history of the Tyne and a sub editor on the Journal, Newcastle.
