Shadows on the Sea

"The great oceans of the world have long been considered alien environments said to harbor strange creatures and unfathomable mysteries. This new book, from The History Press’s successful Shadows series, examines the maritime-rich heritage surrounding the coastline of Britain and the mysterious activity said to take place there. Neil Arnold explores eerie stories of phantom ships upon frothing waves, sailor’s stories, fishermen’s tales and impossible monsters said to hide within the inky depths, not forgetting weird tales of USOs – unidentified submarine-type objects – and other mysterious lights witnessed out at sea. Compiling hundreds of stories and many eyewitness accounts, Shadows Over the Sea is an exploration of the unknown that takes the reader on a voyage through strange tales and roaring seas."--Publisher description.
