Edition Notes
"Newcastle, and Wallsend, where I grew up, were the center of the global shipbuilding industry, England's jewel in the great industrial era. In its last act, as the 20th century transformed from an age of iron to one of silicon, the powerful industrial North lost its place as the dominant force in the shipbuilding arts. The story of The Last Ship is about the community of tradesmen who presided over the shipyards' last days, about the families whose lives were overturned by a massive wave of 'progress.' "--Foreword by Sting

The presswork was executed by Arthur Larson at Horton Tank Graphics. The box and chemise were created by Claudia Cohen ..."--Colophon.
