About this book

Mr Lloyd climbs down a ladder on a crumbling pier into a currach, bringing an easel and a mahogany chest of brushes and paints. The boatman talks him through each step, and Lloyd lands in the boat with wet feet.

He refuses to turn back. The boatman warns him that this kind of crossing is no longer common and can be a hard one.
