"This magnificent volume explores our rich and complex relationship with the sea through several thousand years of history. Each chapter includes features on preserved ships, classic boats, museums and other notable sites, both coastal and inland, such as lighthouses and canals, and the book is rounded off with a Gazetteer listing 150 maritime attractions. For sailors and landlubbers alike, The Island Nation is a glorious reminder that our maritime heritage is something we can all engage with." -- from the publisher
