200 years of RNLI courage: the official and definitive illustrated history of the RNLI
Die Inhaltsangabe kann sich auf eine andere Ausgabe dieses Titels beziehen.
The RNLI is the charity that saves lives at sea, providing a lifeboat service, lifeguards and safety education.
The charity’s founder, Sir William Hillary, vowed that ‘with courage, nothing is impossible.’ His vision of forming a rescue service funded by voluntary donations became a reality in 1824 and, almost 200 years on, the charity has saved more than 142,500 lives. Everyone who gives their time or support to the RNLI is a lifesaver.
