Peter Frederick Anson was a marine artist and author of many books on fishing life and religious orders. For fourteen years a brother in an Anglican monastery, he moved over to the Cistercians in the Roman Catholic Church. Coming to the Moray Firth, he spent six years with the fishermen of Buckie and twenty years at Macduff, where he became involved with the Scottish national movement. His most famous book is Fishing Boats and Fisher Folk on the East Coast of Scotland, but his Fisher Folklore is also a standard work.
