“A new book which covers barges, steam coasters and the motor ships of Cambria’s builder F T Everard, which were served aboard by Charlie Fielder ‘between the wars’ publishes later this month. A collaborative venture between SSBR and Chaffcutter Books, the book, entitled The Prowess of Charlie Fielder, has half a dozen short mentions of Cambria and a couple of pictures of her. The level of trade of Everard barges in the River Yare, at Gt Yarmouth and Norwich is prominent within this account. Full details of the book are on Chaffcutter Books new website which went live today! If you are a member of the Society for Sailing Barge Research, do not rush to order it as members will be getting it free in a few weeks time. Hardback, 192 pages and 135 photos – that’s what I call good value. For the rest of you Cambria supporters, hurry and join SSBR, or order and pay £16 (inc p+p) for it online now at www.chaffcutter.com.”

Thanks for that, Richard!
