Father Colum Kelly spent sixteen years as a chaplain for the seafarer's charity Stella Maris, working at Immingham port in the North of England.
In AT SEA: AWAITING ORDERS, Colum draws us into the lives of those seafarers, details how freight ships are the lifeblood of industry, and illustrates the hugely important role played by the priests, chaplains and lay visitors of Stella Maris.
His humour and kindness - and his keen sense of the whimsical - will keep you reading, and will leave you with a smile on your face.
