SHIPPING FORECAST RADIO 4 January 26, 2005
17 out of 19 found this review helpful
If the shipping forecast on radio 4 grips you, fascinates you, comforts you, whatever, and whether or not you are a sailor, you will love this book. All those mysterious places - German Byte, Fisher, North Utsire, etc. all visited. A wonderful travel book and, if you are a watercolourist or sketcher, you'll also enjoy the paintings throughout the book.
This is my book of the year. January 6, 2000

Please do not be put off by the title, this is a travel book that makes you feel you have visited the places described. Although it is beautifully illustrated, this book's strength is it's text. I read it in one sitting and I was completely lost. You will listen to the shipping forecast with new ears!
Fascinating and beautiful book October 31, 1999

This book is all about the Radio 4 Shipping Forecast, but if it sounds dull, it's not. The author visits the areas concerned, and accompanied by paintings of the area, it'll make you listen to the Shipping Forecast again!
