Still passing the point / by Bernard McCall.

"Written by Bernard McCall, this book describes the recent change in the variety of ships passing Battery Point, at Portishead, near Bristol. Each page is illustrated by one or two colour photographs, accompanied by detailed captions providing information about the ship and cargo. Much has happened in the last five years and this has meant a change in the variety of ships passing Battery Point, at Portishead, near Bristol. For example, no cruise liners have visited the Royal Portbury Dock in the intervening years and the recent economic downturn has obviously affected international trade and shipping. Each page is illustrated by one or two colour photographs and these have mainly been taken since the publication of Passing the Point, but some earlier ones have been included for nostalgia and/or comparisons. Once again, a representative sample of ships is included. Some may be seen passing Battery Point almost every day, others may call only occasionally, whilst some may have paid a solitary visit. Detailed captions providing information about the ship and cargo accompany each photograph."--Provided by the publisher.
