About

I am currently researching the history of Salters', the Thames boat firm based at Folly Bridge in Oxford (1858-c.1970). It is largely a social history, but it also touches upon various other areas:

Leisure (Excursions/Tourism) History
Rowing [the sport of] History 
Political History (The Liberal party from the late C19th)
Transport History
Religious History (Wesleyan Methodism from the late C19th / philanthropy)
Economic / Commercial History
Family Business History
Local History (of Oxford and the Upper-Thames area)
Oral History
Victorian History in General and the Thames in particular
