This beautifully illustrated volume from Richard P. de Kerbrech and David L. Williams covers aspects of the construction and the skilled craftsmen that worked on these ships, and many others, from the Edwardian era to the 1920s, revelling in atmospheric views of the boiler shop, foundry, machine shop and slipways, as well as many successful launchings. The rich array of images showcases the labour-intensive heavy engineering and shipyard practices that were once part of Belfast’s major industry, now sadly no more.
RICHARD P. DE KERBRECH served his marine engineering apprenticeship with Shaw Savill & Albion Co. and Cammell Laird shipyard. Later an inspector with the Naval Overseeing service, he went on to lecture in mechanical engineering. He has written 18 books and is a life member of the World Ship Society and a member of The Royal Institution of Naval Architects. DAVID L. WILLIAMS is a commercial & industrial photographer and author, previously responsible for the aircraft and hovercraft in-service support operation of Westland Aerospace. He also spent time working aboard lighthouse tenders and cable layers, has written 35 books on shipping and related subjects, and is an Associate of the British Institute of Professional Photographers and member of the World Ship Society. Both live on the Isle of Wight.
