[edit] Further reading?
I have removed the line "Memoirs - Walter Scott" from the Further reading section. This seems to be a reference to Memoirs of the Life of Sir Walter Scott, Bart. by J.G. Lockhart (1837-38, 7 vols.) I question whether this work as a whole should be recommended to someone interested in reading more about wrecking. Similarly, I have removed the line "Records of a Family of Engineers - R. L. Stevenson." which seems to refer to this. After browsing through the book on line, I see only a few casual mentions of goods that came from wrecks, with nothing on the practice, prevalence, economy, etc. of wrecking. -- Donald Albury 16:14, 19 January 2008 (UTC)
