Lifeboat Heroes: Outstanding Rnli Rescues from Three Centuries. Edward Wake-Walker by Edward Wake-WalkerMy rating: 5 of 5 stars
The book recalls the story of 8 of some of the 2000 plus men and women who have been awarded the bronze,silver or gold medals for bravery since the inception of the RNLI.
The 8 incidents are from 1827-2008 and are all recorded with excellent details of the vessels involved, the crews and the dangers the crews faced.
A very well written and researched book with first class pictures going back to the 1800s.
A must for anyone interested in the sea and bravery.
