{"product_id":"books-maritime-britain-by-paul-heiney","title":"Maritime Britain","description":"Maritime Britain is an attractive, entertaining and highly  informative celebration of the maritime heritage of the UK. Following  themes such as Britain's lighthouses, the Scottish herring fleet,  Cornish shipwrecks, the Armada's legacy, Lord Nelson's birthplace,  Shetland and Fair Isle sweaters, the tea clippers and Thames barges.  Paul Heiney gives a fascinating insight into Britain's rich nautical  history and provides a practical gazetter of Britain's maritime  museums, historic ships and coastal attractions. Britain is an island nation. Its music and literature are shot  through with seafaring themes, and inspirational stories of trade,  exploration, war and adventure are stamped upon its harbours and famous  ships - but until now there has been no guidebook to Britain's 600  maritime museums and historic ships or to the coastlines and cliffs  which form their dramatic backdrop. This unique book will be of equal fascination to tourists,  historians, students and amateur enthusiasts, as well as being of  interest to walkers and families on days out.","brand":"World of Books ","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":53508747952401,"sku":null,"price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0784\/4072\/6801\/files\/9780713670912.jpg?v=1778152963","url":"https:\/\/www.worldofbooks.com\/en-gb\/products\/books-maritime-britain-by-paul-heiney","provider":"World of Books ","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
