About this ebook:
Shrimp Boat City is an illustrated essay about St. Augustine's strong connection to commercial shrimping and boat building. Not only did St. Augustine serve as a center for commercial shrimping from 1922 until the early 1950s, the ancient city became the trawler-building capital of the world and, by 1990, thousands of locally built trawlers were fishing the world over. Contributing to over 23 foreign fleets and participating in many important fisheries, St. Augustine's trawlers became known as productive, safe, and reliable boats. Stories and pictures from the industry are presented here to tell the tale of an American epic, the halcyon days of fishing and boat building in St. Augustine.Ed Long is a native of St. Augustine and worked in the boat building and repair business beginning in 1951. He also worked for DESCO for over 14 years.Brendan Burke is a maritime archaeologist with the Lighthouse Archaeological Maritime Program, the research wing of the St. Augustine Lighthouse & Museum.

It was adequate. The tempo was somewhat languid, and I found my mind wandering. Not poor, simply average. Suitable if your reading queue is empty.
