In On and Offshore Dick Durham rediscovers the lesser known areas of the east coast of England, in the wake of nineteenth-century yachtsman Frank Cowper. The skipper and crew ofthe 26 foot cutter Almita cruise the lower reaches of the Thames and the coasts of Essex, Suffolk and North Kent, viewing Cowper's old sailing grounds with modern eyes but with hearts of oak yearning for the bygone days of sail. From Teddington up to Lowestoft Dick Durham maintains a steady flow of anecdote and incident, ancient and modern, on and offshore. Bloody historical battles mingle with comical mishap on the mudbanks of Essex in an entertaining narrative evoking the full flavour of this oft-neglected area.
