Description

144 pages. Profusely illustrated with excellent colour photos. "Never has the towboat's central place in the coastal landscape been more forecefully brought to light than in this masterful photographic study. This ruggedly handsome book explores the history of West Coast towboats from the days of the Hudson's Bay Company's ungainly sidewheeler S.S. Beaver to the space-age tractor tugs of today that can turn on a dime and have so much power they can cave in a ship's side." - from dust jacket. Clean, bright and unmarked with very light wear. An excellent copy. Book
