Présentation The Levelling Sea Format Broché
- Livre Histoire
Résumé : The story of Britain's colourful maritime past seen through the changing fortunes of the Cornish port of Falmouth. Within the space of few years, during the 1560s and 1570s, a maritime revolution took place in England that would contribute more than anything to the transformation of the country from a small rebel state on the fringes of Europe into a world power. Until then, it was said, there was only one Englishman capable of sailing across the Atlantic. Yet within ten years an English ship with an English crew was circumnavigating the world. At the same time in Cornwall, in the Fal estuary, just a single building - a lime kiln - existed where the port of Falmouth would emerge. Yet by the end of the eighteenth century, Falmouth would be one of the busiest harbours in the world. 'The Levelling Sea' uses the story of Falmouth's spectacular rise and fall to explore wider questions about the sea and its place in history and imagination. Drawing on his own deep connection with Cornwall, award-winning author Philip Marsden writes unforgettably about the power of the sea and its ability to produce greed on a piratical scale, dizzying corruption, and grand and tragic aspirations.

'Marsden is a writer who also clearly believes in the craft he practises! In this book, he may well have gone some way to putting Falmouth back on the map where it probably belongs' The Tablet 'His fond knowledge soaks through every page and his pitch-perfect feel for a phrase, plus a gift as sublime as James Hamilton-Paterson or Jonathan Raban's for describing water, lifts 'The Levelling Sea' far above ordinary to a state closer to poetry.' Sunday Times 'Simply a splendid book!Marsden's writing is delightfully honed as well as being profoundly well-researched. 'The Levelling Sea' is a microcosm of British history!this portrait of a port and its people sails deep into the reader's imagination' Sunday Telegraph '[A] wonderfully poetic exploration' Sunday Times [A] pacy narrative history ! A swashbuckling but not unserious exploration of bravery, politics and fortunes ! as liquid as the sea that yielded them' Financial Times
