Beskrivelse
Around a date of 1600 there was considerable coastal trade between England and Scotland. The Union of Crowns was in 1603. This was concentrated between ports in Fife and those in Norfolk and the Wash. A fairly detailed examination is given here of the various relevant factors: sections are on cargoes, on families involved, on the ships, and on the extensive dangers involved to seamen at this time. Concentration is on the Fife port of Kirkcaldy and the Wash port of King's Lynn.
