Storm Warriors of the Suffolk Coast by Ernest Read Cooper was first published in 1936. This updated edition is revised and edited by East Anglian maritime author Robert Malster and now includes a selection of photographs, many taken by the author when manager of Southwold lifeboat station in Suffolk.

These stories of wreck and rescue will prove fascinating to all who enjoy stories of the sea and to social historians looking at seaside communities in the 19th and 20th centuries. Independent lifeboats and lifeboats of the RNLI in the days of oars and sail, are all part of the book.
