The Irish Boats Volume 2 by Malcolm Mcronald
The second in the series about the Irish Sea Ferries from Liverpool looks at the ships that sailed to Cork and to Waterford from the 1820s until they closed in the 1960s. For many years, the Waterford service was operated by the firm of Malcomson Brothers, which at the time was the largest shipping organisation in the world, albeit now totally forgotten. The book also describes the West Highland cruises operated by Coast Lines and a predecessor.
Robins, Nick: - NICK ROBINS, a geologist by profession, is acknowledged for setting maritime history within the bigger social and political picture. His books describe the evolution of a variety of ship types ranging from tugs and tenders to excursion steamers and cargo vessels. His last book, The Coming of the Comet, was published by Seaforth in 2012.
