Synopsis

"Tales from the Tyne" features true stories from the days when the Tyne was one of Britain's busiest ports at the heart of the great North-East coalfield. Highlighting the rivers' shipping history, the book includes chapters on the passenger steamers, which linked Newcastle with London, the hard-working tugs, the floating hospital and the ever-busy coal staithes where collier ships loaded a seemingly never-ending stream of 'black diamonds'.
