Renowned historian Alistair Moffat traces the windswept story of the North Sea throughout British history and examines how it has shaped who we are and how we see ourselves
'A rollicking, surprising, often moving personal history' ANDREW MARR'Wonderfully descriptive, knowledgeable and concise' Scotsman'The first full account of the North Sea, above the waves and below' GORDON BROWNThis is the epic, sweeping history of our shores and our relationship to the sea. It's a story of newcomers and the mark they left. It is a story of warring tribes, foreign invaders, lost civilisations and holidaymakers. But it is also a story of huge technological advancement and industry: of submarine engineering and weather forecasting, of whaling expeditions, fishing trawlers and offshore wind farms. From renowned historian, Alistair Moffat, this is the story of how the North Sea shaped us and will continue to do so; it is above all a story of insistent, inescapable change.
