Kent has a long coastline and this, together with its position as the English county closest to Europe, has meant that it has a long history of seafaring, as well as being vulnerable to attack during wartime. In this book, the different aspects of Kent's connection with the sea over the past 200 years is described, with a large number of photographs showing how the ships and the way of life of those who work on sea and coast have changed.
