Between the Devil and the Deep Meeting Challenges in the Public Interpretation of Maritime Cultural Heritage

From the book reviews:

“This volume … is an essential read for anyone involved in communicating heritage within a maritime context to the public. … Between the Devil and the Deep makes a useful contribution to the study and analysis of public heritage initiatives within the maritime context. … a good basis for people who are faced with presenting maritime heritage to the public for the first time and gives guidance to those navigating between pride in a project and institutional government policies.” (Danielle Newman, International Journal of Nautical Archaeology, Vol. 44 (1), 2015)
