FISHING INDUSTRY THROUGH TIME | FROM DUCANSBY HEAD TO THE SOLWAY FIRTH

Since Britain joined the European Economic Community in the mid- 1970s, the fishing industry along our coasts has been under pressure from overfishing. In this book, Mike Smylie takes us on a tour from Duncansby Head to the Solway Firth. Here, small crofting communities sit on the fringe of the sea, hidden among the lochs and islands that indent Scotland’s beautiful west coast and using what may well be the prettiest fishing boats in Britain.
