The Norfolk marshes had their own chronicler. Arthur Patterson spent a lifetime around Great Yarmouth's estuaries and Breydon Water, and these notes gather what he saw: wildfowl in their thousands, seals and rare visitors, punt-gunners and eel-catchers, the hard poetry of a coast that lives by tide and wind. Written with a working man's directness and a naturalist's precision, they preserve a wild East Anglia now mostly memory. For lovers of shorelines and salt air, this is the real thing. Push off into the reeds.
