“As I Recall…” :  The Liverpool Nautical Research Society Oral History Project 

A new interview in our Oral History Project is now available in the members’ area of the website.  LNRS member and former Chairman Elfyn Hughes talks to Tony Melling about his early career at sea as a deck cadet and junior officer with T & J Harrison.

To view the interview, which comprises an audio recording supplemented by pictures, simply login with your username and password, and a new menu item ‘Oral History Project’ will become available under ‘Activity’ on the Main Menu at the top of every page.

We have already recorded a variety of interviews which will be published at monthly intervals, and are keen to hear from any member who would like to participate.  If you are interested, please contact us through the website or by email to: contactlnrs@gmail.com.
