About this title

Synopsis

The Solent is one of the most famous sailing areas in the world. It lies between the shores of Hampshire to the North and the Isle of Wight to the South - a little under 30 miles. This book tells of the creation of The Solent, its natural environment and development as a waterway; it's naval and military development, its enchanted shores, havens and harbors, its yachting history and photography, and The Solent as it is today. This book has come to be regarded as the 'bible' on a unique, much visited and beautiful area.
