The Marine Society

Our special offer book this month is the superbly written and beautifully illustrated Safeguarding the Nation by John Roberts.

We offer it at a special discounted price for all orders received in March 2010. More information here.

Late last year author Richard Woodman popped into The Marine Society to sign copies of the latest volume in his seminal history of the Merchant Navy [pictured right in the Society's Council Chamber].

Entitled Masters Under God the book covers the period 1816-1884.

The previous volumes cover the period 1500-1807 and 1763-1815 respectively.

We currently have stock of all three copies and offer them for sale at £22.50 each including UK post and packing.

We offer all three volumes at £60 including UK postage.

Masters Under God is reviewed here.

We've created a new home for our educational provision through The Marine Society College of the Sea.

You'll also find information about financial support to seafarers in the College of the Sea.
