ABOUT THE AUTHOR
Robert (Bob) Fildes was born in the United Kingdom,
where he obtained a Degree in Economics at the University of Kingston-upon-Hull,
Yorkshire, in 1968. Shortly after graduation he emigrated to Australia, where he
has lived ever since and is a naturalized Australian.
In Australia Bob Fildes worked for the N.S.W. Government in the Ministry of Transport
and subsequently as a technical college teacher in Sydney, where he was scriptwriter
and consultant for several educational films, including “Ships and Cargoes”. Bob
has previously published a number of shipping books eg. “The Ships that serve Australia
and New Zealand”, as well as being the editor for some years of the Sydney Heritage
Fleet quarterly magazine “Australian Sea Heritage”. He also supplies ship photos
for use in some well known U.K. ship reference publications.
A lifelong interest in all kinds of ships together with a desire to photograph them
has provided the basis for this book and CD.
All the photos in this book and CD
are by Bob Fildes unless otherwise stated.
