Book Description Hardcover. Condition: new. Hardcover. An immersive history of a pivotal stretch of waterFascinating, spellbinding, erudite and great fun. Roddy DoyleRemarkable. Lively Gower writes beautifully [and] the book is profoundly popular. Times Literary SupplementThe Turning Tide is a hymn to a sea passage of world-historical importance. Combining social and cultural history, nature-writing, travelogue and politics, Welshman Jon Gower charts a sea which has carried both Vikings and saints; invasion forces, royals and rebels; writers, musicians and fishermen.The divided but interconnected waters of the Irish Sea from the narrow North Channel through St Georges Channel to where the Celtic sea opens out into the wide Atlantic have a turbulent history to match the violence of its storms. Jon Gower is a sympathetic and interested pilot, taking the reader to the great shipyards of Belfast and through the mass exodus of the starving during the Irish Famine in coffin boats bound for America. He follows the migrations of working men and women looking for work in England and tells the tales of more casual travellers: sometimes seasick, often homesick too.The Irish Sea is also a place with an abundant natural history. The rarest sea bird in Europe visits its coasts in summer while the rarest goose wings in during winter.The Turning Tide navigates waters teeming with life, filled with seals and salt-tanged stories and surveyed by seabirds. Lyrically written and fizzing with curiosity, this is a remarkable and far-reaching book. An immersive history of a pivotal stretch of water 'Fascinating, spellbinding, erudite and great fun.' Roddy Doyle 'Remarkable. Lively . Gower writes beautifully [and] the book is profoundly popular.'
