Product Description
The Shipping Forecast on Radio 4 has been keeping people up to date with the latest changes to British weather for a century, and capturing our hearts and imaginations along the way. Celebrating 100 years since the first broadcast, this book takes you to the heart of what the Shipping Forecast means to us as a nation. Each of the ten chapters brings you on a fascinating exploration of a different area of our British maritime history, from stormy weather up above to the seabed far below, and from fishing boats to the art, songs and poems inspired by the forecast. With illustrations and fascinating facts about each sea area, this joyous book invites you to sail away into the enchanting world of the forecast, and is the perfect companion for anyone curious about our great British skies and seas.
