This book is the result of many years' detailed study: the authoress travelled many hundreds of miles and sailed on a wide variety of boats to acquire the knowledge and experience which is here permanently put on record. The practical details are of great value: descriptions of yards and their work, types of fishing practised, comparison of costs, materials and methods of construction, are all recorded with meticulous thoroughness.
