Description - Exploiting the Sea by Professor David J. Starkey
Offering perspectives on Britain's vital but changing relationship with the sea since the late-19th century, this work assesses the significance to the British economy of self-reliant industries such as shipping, shipbuilding, fishing, coastal trading and seaside tourism. It also seeks to explain why the clear pre-eminence that Britain established in the maritime world during the Victorian era has not been sustained in the 20th century.
