Hardcover. Zustand: Very Good. Zustand des Schutzumschlags: Very Good. 1st Edition. VINTAGESTAN BOOKS Title: Old Time Steam Coasting by Owen G. Spargo and Thomas H. Thomason Summary: Old Time Steam Coasting is a nonfiction maritime history and memoir book about British steam coasting ships and the sailors who worked aboard them, especially during the late 19th and early 20th centuries. Written by experienced seamen Owen G. Spargo and Thomas H. Thomason, it combines historical background with firsthand accounts of life at sea. The covers: • The era when steam-powered coastal cargo ships ("steam coasters") replaced sailing vessels around Britain. • Everyday working life aboard these ships including cargo handling, navigation, weather hazards, port operations, and the demanding conditions faced by crews. • Personal stories and anecdotes from the authors' maritime careers, covering different vessels and coastal trades around Great Britain. • The economic and social setting of British coastal shipping, including difficult periods such as the Great Depression and changes in maritime technology and trade. Rather than being a technical engineering text, the book is more of an illustrated historical reminiscence. It includes ship descriptions, maps, photographs, and memories intended to preserve a disappearing era of British merchant shipping. Maritime enthusiasts often value it as a record of working steamship culture before modern shipping transformed coastal trade. Authors: Owen G. Spargo and Thomas H. Thomason Illustrated by: C.V.
