Items related to The Boat and the Town
In 1976 Geoffrey Moorhouse went to a small town in New England to live as a deep-sea fisherman there. For the next twelve months he worked as a deckhand with four other men aboard a boat which caught fish on Georges Bank 200 miles of the coast of North America. This book is both a documentary account and an imaginative reconstruction of a year in the life of a fishing community. The Boat is the centre of their existence. Outsiders who see the boat returning after a period away cannot understand the significance of this for all whose lives are attached to it
