Romance & adventure are just part of the story of RADIO CAROLINE - the world's best known radio ship. She has battled with authorities, the elements and gangsters, but continues to beam Love, Peace and Music to the world. This small privately owned radio station was set up to break the Government's stranglehold on radio broadcasting. Some of her backers wanted to kick-start commercial radio, some wanted to create an outlet for music and some simply believed in freedom of expression and wanted to promote music.
Being the first all-day pop music station, launching at the vanguard of the British music explosion, Radio Caroline was a sensation. Competitors came and went but Caroline continued, overcoming unsurmountable odds. Legislation, the loss of masts, a raid by armed thugs, grounding of ships and even a sinking were just some of the obstacles the Caroline team faced. Although her last ship is now restricted to UK waters, Radio Caroline continues developing outlets on AM, DAB and online, to promote love, peace and good music. This remarkable story takes readers behind the scenes into the heart of Radio Caroline, a world of intrigue and exciting modern-day adventure; that's radio waves from the high seas.Author Paul Rusling has been involved with dozens of radio stations in many countries, including several at
