Galloway Shipwrecks is the result of twenty years research by the author, progressing from its original concept as a Divers Guide to becoming a historic record of maritime disasters off the coast of Dumfries & Galloway. Within its pages are details of almost 650 shipwrecks in an area from the Ailsa Craig to Annan in the Solway Firth.
Over 90 photographs show not only vessels ashore and afloat but depict many aspects related to shipwreck, such as notices of sale, artefacts and original documents. There are accounts of heroism and courage but also, sad to say, some of the more unsavoury incidents, which unfortunately take place when a ship is wrecked.
