A history in 26 parts in the words of those who have made the history. 1: Introduction - The Deep Sea
Sea covers 70 per cent of the globe; man himself was cradled in it. Our maritime history is a story which everyone thinks they know - and which on the whole they don't; the great unknown subject. It is an amazing human achievement, and all the more so because so much of it is salt sores, the stench of bilge-water and weevilly biscuits.
