The Return of the Great Britain - R. Goold-Adams

In 1970 the SS Great-Britain returned to the very same dock in Bristol, watched by eight million people Britain's television network. The story of her salvage -an epic of the sea- is told here for the first time in fascinating detail. From the moment when she was first surveyed in the Falkland Islands, where the lay on the point of disintegration in Sparrow Cove, we have a full account of the dramatic rescue: het succesful refloating, the long tow home lashed to a pontoon, and the delicate manoeuvres of the dry-docking process.
