Product Description

Book Description

Combining history and humour, poetry and prose, this book is a perceptive insider's view of life in old Cardiff docklands. There are stories aplenty—of Tiger Bay, the Docks and the Glamorganshire Canal; of churches, missions and street corner bookies; of seamen, dock workers and the fat lady who had three sailor husands, each convinced that she was his faithful spouse. Not all the stories are happy: there are sad ones too. These are lyrical tales, history as recalled through the eyes of an old seaman, a trip down memory lane that can be read and enjoyed by all.

From the Author

I first shook hands with Cardiff as a boy seaman in the mid-thirties. Since those days I have walked every inch of the docklands a thousand times, from the foreshore to the Hayes. It was magic all those years back, and now, more than six decades later, it still is.
