An Essay On The Encroachments Of The German Ocean Along The Norfolk Coast is a vivid, urgent meditation on land, sea, and the shifting boundary between them. This restored edition folds a concise historical coastal essay into a timely maritime history treatise, offering a clear narrative of north sea encroachment and the long arc of coastal erosion. It reads as both warning and guidance: a coastal erosion warning woven with practical sea defences guidance, regional geology and history, and a thorough Norfolk coast study that speaks to local history readers and curious explorers alike. More than a reprint, Alpha Editions returns a complete historical pamphlet as an archive collection edition, with an illustrated edition sensibility that brings late-19th-century shores to life for today's readers. The book's literary and historical significance lies in its candid observation of a changing coastline and the enduring questions of how communities respond to nature's pressure. Casual readers will encounter a gripping, human-scale tale of land and sea, while classic-literature collectors will value its provenance and its place in the continuum of regional coastal defence writing. This edition is a cultural treasure, restored for today's and future generations, and suited to the shelves of those who treasure historical coastal essays, archive collections, and thoughtful explorations of sea frontiers.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e William Hewitt\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 935494356X\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9789354943560\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Alpha Edition\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 08\/17\/2021\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 78\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.28lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.00h x 6.00w x 0.19d","brand":"William Hewitt","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":48996344070399,"sku":"9789354943560","price":19.58,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/an-essay-on-the-encroachments-william-hewitt-9789354943560","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
