Many members will still remember Tony Hopkins who was a member of the Baltic from 1953 until 1989 when he retired as Chairman of Howe Robinson, but few will have heard him talking of his service as a very young man during World War II.
 

We are pleased to share that Tony Hopkins’ memoir book, "I Suppose That You Think You Are a Man Now, Hopkins!" A Merchant Seaman's Story, is available for purchase for £20.
 

This remarkable book recounts Tony’s experiences as a Merchant Navy Midshipman during World War II and his distinguished career in shipping. 
 

All proceeds will support the Worshipful Company of Shipwrights Charitable Fund and their partnership with the Tall Ships Youth Trust, providing life-changing opportunities for young people.
 

We hope you’ll join us in honoring Tony’s legacy and supporting this important cause. Please email marketing@balticexchange.com to purchase a copy.
