The lifeboats of Valentia have been in service since 1946, when the
volunteer crew were summoned to action by the firing of maroon
flares. Dick Robinson has been associated with the lifeboat station
for almost 60 of those years, firstly as a child watching the
flares, then as a serving crewmember, and finally as a maritime
historian. In this detailed history, he captures the spirit of the
station, together with the tragedies and sacrifices that make up
its history. "Valentia Lifeboats: A History," has been compiled
using the first-hand accounts, original and rare images, and
detailed records of the station. It is a fitting tribute to the
people who have served here, and will be a record of the station
for many years to come.
