THE HISTORY

OF

THE LIFE-BOAT AND ITS WORK.

By RICHARD LEWIS,

BARRISTER-AT-LAW, SECRETARY TO THE ROYAL NATIONAL
LIFE-BOAT INSTITUTION.

With Illustrations, and Wreck Chart.

"To tell the story of a noble work—the work of the Life-boat,—was almost the privilege of Mr. Lewis, and he has told it admirably."—Standard.

"Though the book perforce contains many matters of sheer science, and a multitude of statistics, it is not by any means dry reading, and even the frivolously inclined will read with deep interest some of the chapters, more especially that of the Ramsgate Life-boat above alluded to."—Land and Water.
