The lifeboat service in Scotland : station by station

Leach, Nicholas2013
Books, Manuscripts
For the past 200 years, lifeboats have been stationed around the coasts of Scotland, ready to rescue the shipwrecked. In times past, shipwrecks were much more common and there was little provision to help those stranded at sea. This book tells the story of each Scottish station, both onshore and in the islands.
