Ask a question about this book

Bridgwater has an astonishing wealth of trading history and was for hundreds of years the only large port for most of Somerset. Trade was very extensive and there are at least a dozen other Bridgewaters in the rest of the world. This book was written to coincide with the 800th anniversary of the Bridgwater's First Charter. Poems by James Crowden, Photography by Pauline Rook.
