At last a paperback edition of this standard work on marine
archaeology. Sean McGrail's study received exceptional critical
acclaim when it was first published in hardback in 1987 and it is
now revised and published in paperback for the first time.
Professor McGrail provides an authoritative survey of water
transport across Northern Europe from the Late Palaeolithic to the
later Middle Ages, using evidence of excavations, but also
documentary sources, iconographic and ethnographic evidence. In the
process he answers such key questions as How were these boats
built? What sort of environment were they used in? What speeds
could they achieve? and how were they navigated?
