The dramatic and stunning Welsh coastal landscapes of the island of Anglesey are documented in this beautiful pictorial record of the history of Anglesey's coast, from prehistoric times to the present day. The fact that Anglesey is an island has been crucial to its history, its coast the scene of prehistoric fishing and oyster catching, Neolithic tombs and Bronze Age round barrows, Roman influenced villas, Irish incursions, a Norman motte and the last of the great Edwardian castles to be built at Beaumaris, the development of Holyhead into its main port in the nineteenth century, and the growth of sustainable energy in the form of wind turbines in the twentieth. The photography taken by Mick Sharp and Jean Williamson is supplemented by text by Frances Lynch who introduces each chapter and provides detailed captions describing and providing background information to the photographs.

The First and Second World Wars had a profound effect on all parts of Great Britain, and the comparatively isolated and rural island of Anglesey was no exception. Men were recruited and conscripted into the armed forces in large numbers and some parts of Anglesey, such as the port town of Holyhead, sprang to life. Many Anglesey men found themselves in exotic locations all across the world, while others lost their lives on the killing fields of Western Europe during the First World War. Many soldiers wrote letters home describing their experiences: good, bad and downright bizarre. Airships were deployed during the First World War and RAF airbases were established during the Second World War. The wars left a legacy that can still be seen on the island today.

Ralph Morris' guide to the island of Anglesey and the North Wales coast was first published over 30 years ago. At that time, it covered little more than the island itself. Over the years, the pilot has been extended and it now provides information about tides, dangers, harbours and anchorages from Liverpool (marina) to Aberdovey (the same waters covered by Imray’s 2700 chart pack), plus the author’s own chart graphics. This fully updated, tenth edition is full colour with chart graphics, aerial views and nearly 100 original photos. It also makes reference to the most noteworthy event in recent years- the wholesale destruction of Holyhead Marina by Storm Emma in March 2018. Ralph Morris learned his way around Anglesey the hard way - in a day boat with a single chart and a compass which one day chose to fail in fog. That's not the only thing which prompted the decision to write this pilot, though- the prime mover was the increasing scarcity of Henry Glazebrook's ‘Anglesey & North Wales Coast Pilot’, which got him out of many tight corners. The detail and precision of Glazebrook’s "Anglesey & North Wales Coast Pilot" is legendary and, through this guide, the author hopes to maintain its accessibility to all yachties sailing these waters.
