Publisher's Synopsis

This volume presents a detailed and comprehensive picture of the port of Liverpool in the 19th century. The book discloses the history of dock and maritime labour and the persistent efforts of Merseyside workers to achieve union organization on the waterfront and aboard the fleets of vessels which packed the port dockland and approaches with forests of masts in the years before steam ousted the wind jammer and became supreme.
