Synopsis: Lundy Island is a small speck of land in the Bristol Channel. Yet its maritime history far outweighs its small stature. It has been the refuge of pirates, a smuggler's hideaway, an impregnable fortress, and a convict settlement. It has boasted the tallest lighthouse in the U.K. and the most expensive shipwreck, the brand new battleship HMS Montagu which ran aground there in 1906. This book aims to present Lundy's maritime story, bringing together various sources and complementing them with the author's own photographs taken on visits to Lundy in 2010 and 2011 together with detailed maps of the location of vessels wrecked. It will be of interest to historians, to lovers of Lundy, and to those who wish to further their knowledge of this fascinating land.
