It moves beyond a focus on shipwrecks as events and shows the short and long term economic, social and symbolic significance of wrecks and strandings to the people on the shoreline. This volume draws on extensive oral histories, documentary and archaeological research to examine the tensions within the community, negotiating its way between its roles as shipwreck saviours and salvors.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003ch3\u003eDetails\u003c\/h3\u003e \u003cp\u003ePublished by: Springer\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003ePublication Date: 2015-05-25\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eFormat: Hardcover\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eISBN-13: 9781493926411\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eDOI: 10.1007\/978-1-4939-2642-8\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eDimensions: 235cm x155cm\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003ePages: 243\u003c\/p\u003e ","brand":"Springer New York","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47667612680332,"sku":"9781493926411","price":49.49,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0710\/9545\/1788\/files\/9781493926411.jpg?v=1776459947","url":"https:\/\/fh90cf-fv.myshopify.com\/products\/9781493926411","provider":"Late Knight Books and Services, LLC","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
