This book is a study of the effect of occupation on industrial
behaviour and how occupation affects social, community and family
life. The fishing industry was one of the last to experience the
Industrial Revolution. In East Anglia, steam propulsion was
introduced within the working life of the oldest of those
interviewed for this book, and a number of radical changes in
working practices, capital cost and technical development were
concentrated into the brief period 1880-1914. As these changes
occurred with different timing and force in the two major sectors
of the industry - trawling and drifting - East Anglia is an ideal
location in which to consider the effect of the forces and
relations of production: the fishermen's industrial, social and
political attitudes are related to their specific work experience.
