The Story of the Steep and Flat Holms
by Dorothy Howard Rowlands

Where the Severn meets the sea, two islands stand sentinel. For countless ages they have watched man battle with wind and tide. Phoenicians, Vikings, Saxons, Romans, wreckers, pirates, merchant venturers, explorers, and pleasure steamers have passed before them. Tonight, the phantom procession passes by once again and, across the water, the Steep Holm calls to his sister, the Flat Holm.
