Liverpool Docks (Images of England)
Language: English
Published by The History Press Ltd, United Kingdom, Stroud, 1999
ISBN 10: 0752417126 ISBN 13: 9780752417127
Seller: WorldofBooks, Goring-By-Sea, WS, United Kingdom
Seller rating 5 out of 5 stars
Paperback. Condition: Very Good. The story of Liverpool is, in many ways, the story of its docks. Before the docks, trade was limited by the tides and at the mercy of the Mersey's currents. After dock construction began, the city became a hub of Britain's worldwide trading network. Cheshire Salt, Lancashire coal and textiles, Staffordshire pottery and Birmingham metal goods were all export staples and played an important part - until the 1807 abolition - in the infamous African slave trade. At the same time, sugar, rum, cotton and timber were exported in huge quantities. Through the expansion of the empire and the opportunities presented by steam power, the docks continued to grow and prosper. Even after the setbacks and bombing of the Second World War, trade rapidly recovered. However, the pace of change increased in the late 1950s and not to Liverpool's benefit. Passenger liners lost out to airliners (Cunard ships last called here in 1964) and changes in cargo handling led to the displacement of six traditional cargo liners for every new container vessel. There was competition from new container ports like Felixstowe as well as a range of local difficulties. With many contemporary illustrations of people, ships, buildings and machinery, Michael Stammers chronicles not just the rise and fall of Mersey shipping but also the way the docks have bounced back. Redevelopment, restoration and new modes of commerce have put Liverpools docks back in the black and the docks continue to be a significant part of the Liverpool of today, albeit a very different-looking docks to the port of over sixty years ago. The book has been read, but is in excellent condition. Pages are intact and not marred by notes or highlighting. The spine remains undamaged.

Shire Publication: Tugs and Towage by M K Stammers No.239 1989
Language: English
Published by Shire Publications, Princes Risborough Bucks, 1989
ISBN 10: 0747800391 ISBN 13: 9780747800392
Softcover Satin Finish. Condition: As New. No Jacket. ## Shire Publication: Tugs and Towage by M K Stammers No.239 1989 ## ## THIS BOOK: Classified AS NEW: This Book is the 1989 edition, first published in 1989. There is a wealth of information on Tugs and Towage, Illustrated with descriptions, a fantastic collection, and a wonderful history. There is information on places to visit. This book and a lot of others in my inventory are from private collectors and kept as new.## ## Full colour cover, satin finish. Full information where further reading and visiting is available. ## ## TUGS AND TOWAGE: This book outlines the history of tugs from their inception at the beginning of the nineteenth century to the present day. A tug's main job is to tow other floating vessels. At first, this was only in and out of docks and harbours. Now, tugs have many more tasks, including salvage, firefighting and pollution control. The biggest tugs can handle floating structures such as oil rigs on trans-ocean voyages. Towage, whatever the era, is difficult and dangerous and depends upon the skill of the tug crews. Their small size and attractive appearance make tugs popular subjects for preservation. ## ## Shire Books by Bloomsbury Publishing, a book publishing company based in London, England, and formerly by Shire Publications Ltd. and Osprey Publishing. Shire offers low-priced, concise non-fiction paperbacks on a wide range of subjects. Shire books cover antiques and collectables, motoring and rural history, archaeology and Egyptology, architecture, industrial history and many other topics.## ## They were founded in 1962 by John Rotheroe, the company based in Princes Risborough, Buckinghamshire. The first book published by Shire Publications was Discovering East Suffolk, a 24-page guide to the county through a series of five motoring routes and a gazetteer of the main towns and villages. They were given away to visitors via coach operators, local churches and tourist information points. The book was successful, and Shire publishers decided to sell the second edition because free copies were being sold, setting the template for the future of Shire. Over the following years, Shire expanded its Discovering series and launched several new series, including Lifelines, Shire Albums, Shire Archaeology and Shire Egyptology. ## ## In 2008, Shire began a revamp of its list. It announced that the former Shire series, including Life Lines, Shire Garden History and History in Camera, would be absorbed into a new series called Shire Library, which would retain and expand on the numbering system used by the old Album series, which has long formed the backbone of the Shire Library. ## ### INTERNATIONAL BUYERS: Please Note.
