From far and wide they come to see this great free
spectacle, the Severn Bore, as thousands line the bank below Gloucester to see
the mighty wave travelling upriver. Yet until now there has only been one
previous book written about this fascinating subject.
Did you know the world
surfing record was achieved by a Gloucester man surfing the Severn? Would you
like to know all about elvers, eels and salmon fishing on the lower Severn? Can
you imagine what it is like to be on a large cargo barge loaded with 250 tonnes
of grain as it rides the bore above Gloucester? These subjects and more are
covered in this 84 page book which is fully illustrated with photographs and
drawings.
