Sobre este artículo
Garage A5 dark spine white text: Seren Books, 2003. Paperback. Used: Acceptable. With over 200 miles of coastline, the fortunes of Wales are intimately connected to the sea. It has served as the highway for goods and people; a route to riches; the setting for cruelty and for selfless heroism. In an elegant and informative style Trevor Fishlock explores the history of Wales's relationship with the sea, from shipbuilding and seafaring to smuggling and emigration. Sailing in the schooner Kathleen & May, Fishlock meets captains and shipwrights, maritime historians and police officers, pilots and lifeboatmen. Uncovering tales of adventure, tragedy and some humour, he reveals a proud heritage, and a still vibrant present. Illustrated throughout in colour, this book will be enjoyed by old salts and armchair navigators alike. Writer and broadcaster Trevor Fishlock was staff correspondent of The Times in India and New York, and Moscow bureau chief for The Daily Telegraph. He has written books about Wales, India, America and Russia. 1-85411-360-7. Paperback - 2003 - good condition - - . Isbn 1854113607.
Sinopsis
For those who really need to know, Terry Pratchett was born in Buckinghamshire, England, in 1948. He has managed to avoid all the really interesting jobs authors take in order to look good in this kind of biography. In his search for a quiet life he got a job as a Press Officer with the Central Electricity Generating Board after Three Mile Island, which shows his unerring sense of timing. Now a full-time writer, he lives in Somerset with his wife and daughter. He likes people to buy him banana daiquiris (he knows people don’t read author biographies, but feels this might be worth a try).
