Omslag till Richard Lewis: History of the Life-Boat, and Its Work (ePUB)

The life-boat is well known to all sailors and a lifeline for all those the sailors leave on shore. This book is full of stories showing that unbelievable heroism that makes people go out into the worst storms to save others. Many of the earliest books, particularly those dating back to the 1900s and before, are now extremely scarce and increasingly expensive. We are republishing these classic works in affordable, high quality, modern editions, using the original text and artwork.
