My first book: Silja Line from De Samseglande to Tallink

Silja Line from De Samseglande to Tallink is lavishly illustrated with images from the entire 110-year period covered in the book.
My first (but hopefully not the last) book, Silja Line from De Samseglande to Tallink was published at the end of last month. For the first time, the book details the entire history of Silja Line and its predecessors, from the first joint service agreement in 1904 to the present day, when Silja Line is a brand owned by the Estonia-based Tallink Grupp. It also includes, for the first time in detail, a history of Tallink, who have rised from obscurity to being one of the world's leading ferry operators during the last quarter of a century.

In addition to the history of Silja Line, the book also includes a detailed history of Tallink.
At 156 pages, the book is lavishly illustrated with images from such skilled photographers as Krzysztof Brzoza, Jukka Huotari, Sami Koski, Rami Wirrankoski and others - in addition to myself, naturally.

With a recommended price of 28 euros, the book is available from well-stocked bookstores, as well as directly from the publisher's website at ferrypubs.co.uk.

Kships will return to normal programming later this week.

    1. Well, Bruce has hardly disappeared, but admittedly his blog is a bit quiet. Blogging does take up a surprisingly large amount of time that could be used for other exploits.
