re: Well researched possibly but she sure left a lot out, and I'm not sure about well written, if so you wouldn't have been so disappointed, I sure was, BBC was so effusive, always. I gave this book a low rating, but it's an interesting place in time, she drove me crazy though, she was all over the place, she'd be writing about someone then switch centuries, then they'd pop up in the book later, in 3 or 4 different chapters Time warp? a tear in the space continuum? just got bits and bites, that's for donuts not books, really annoying. The world of the Fishing Fleet shaped a country(or warped it ) the effects are still being felt, some good stuff here, probably the best thing to do is to keep track of names thru the book and go on a treasure hunt for diaries, probably quite a few, see back of book, she's always good at listing her sources... A good place to find something to read?... ............................................ Dear ser_library & happycanuck If you were interested in this book you might enjoy Bombay Anna, I'd love to tell the very interesting twists in Anna's story but I should leave that for you, such pretty little tidbits to find.
