Hardcover. Condition: Very Good. Dust Jacket Condition: Very Good. 1st Edition. VINTAGESTAN BOOKS Title: Coasting Sailorman by Albert Bagshaw and Richard Walsh Summary: Coasting Sailorman is a nautical memoir/travel narrative in which the authors recount life aboard small sailing vessels working along the coast likely the British coast, given the authors' backgrounds. The book typically follows: • Day-to-day life of a working sailorman, including handling small craft in varied weather, maintaining gear, and dealing with unpredictable seas. • Coasting voyages, often from port to port, describing harbours, shore towns, and the characters encountered along the way. • Sailing challenges, such as tides, shoals, storms, and navigating without modern instrumentation. • Portraits of the seafaring community fishermen, harbour workers, and fellow sailors captured with a mix of humour, realism, and admiration. • Reflections on seamanship, the fading age of traditional sail, and the rugged independence of those who make their living on coastal waters. The tone is generally informal, anecdotal, and affectionate toward traditional sailing, focusing more on lived experience than grand adventure.
