Description
The first export of wool by steamship from Portland direct to London occurred in 1883 when the Sussex sailed on 13 December. The growth of the port of Portland in terms of overseas trade and shipping from that time until the official opening of an all-weather harbour in November 1960 is traced in this book. It is a story of vision, determination and persistence.
