Lifeboat stations of North Eastern England : from Sunderland to Humberside through time /Paul Chrystal.

"This is the first book to be published which takes then and now views of the fourteen lifeboat stations on the north east coast between Sunderland and the Humber estuary. This lavishly illustrated book traces some of the many ways in which the lifeboat stations at Sunderland, Seaham, Hartlepool, Redcar, Staithes and Runswick Bay, Whitby, Robin Hood's Bay, Scarborough, Flamborough, Filey, Bridlington, Withernsea and Spurn Point have changed over the years. 200 images supported by an informative text will delight everyone interested in the history of the lifeboat stations in these coastal towns and villages. Anyone who lives, or lived, in any of them will enjoy a nostalgic journey through the past that takes them back a hundred or so years and shows them how things have changed. Proceeds from the sale of the book are going to the RNLI."--Provided by the publisher
