The Mountbatten Award for Best Book

 

Very happy to be able to tell you that my 1st book, Leith-Built Ships Vol., I They Once Were Shipbuilders was nominated for an award a while ago. The nomination category is for best book-maritime. Happy to say that the book is still on the list along with some very stiff competition, it is good to see the efforts to highlight the great maritime heritage of the old Port of Leith, is being recognised.
