Description

Britain has had, over many hundreds of years, a huge diversity of working boats operating around her coasts. This work offers an account of the Lochfyne skiff that emerged from generations of innovation and which resulted in one of the prettiest workboats to have graced the British shores.

The shipping was just superior

The shipping was just superior; not even one of the books was in contact with the shipping box -anywhere-, not even a corner or the bottom, so all the books arrived in perfect condition. The international shipping took around 2 weeks, so pretty great too.

Found a hard to get book…

Finding a hard to get book on Booksplease and with it not being an over inflated price was great. Ordering was really easy with updates on despatch. The book was packaged well and in great condition. I will certainly use them again.
