In photographs, artworks, and words Gloria Wilson celebrates the rugged fishing village where she was brought up, and from which she set her course to a career recording, both visually and verbally, the North Sea fishery she loves.

Gloria Wilson documents the Peterhead yard of Richard Irvin & Sons, and the wooden craft for which it became renowned. Some one hundred of her photographs accompany her account of the boats and the people who made up a distinctive and now disappearing maritime culture.
