In four dozen meticulous, informative and annotated drawings Gloria Wilson has recorded, both afloat and ashore, the functional beauty of the fishing boat in both timber and steel-mainly of eastern Scotland (with a few craft from Yorkshire, where the artist now lives). Many vessels are past or likely victims of an EU legislation which mandates not only their decommissioning, but their destruction. "Kipperman" Mike Smylie, co-founder of the 40+ Fishing Boat Association, editor of Fishing Boats, and champion of Britain's fishing heritage, has contributed a Foreword.
