Synopsis
Sea Fever is a beautifully produced book about the changing face of Britain's coastline. High quality duotone reproduction of Stuart Franklin's stunning black and white photographs take the reader from the impact of storms in the Outer Hebrides to the aftermath of the flash flood in Boscastle, Cornwall, taking in some of the major maritime events of the year, including the Festival of the Sea, the re-enactment of the Battle of Trafalgar, Cowes Week and the Solent Fleet Review.
Addressing many of the concerns and pressures that are changing our shoreline, Sea Fever is an inspiring book that explores environmental and social issues such as shipbuilding, fisheries and the protection of the coast. It is a major cultural contribution to SeaBritain 2005 - a celebration of landscape and livelihoods. We have chosen Trafalgar Day to launch Sea Fever, a day symbolic of our maritime heritage, but also a day when we are looking critically at aspects of change occurring in our coastal environment.
