Leaving New York for Genoa on April 11th, 1912, Philip Mauro and his wife had little idea that they would become eye-witnesses to history four days later, when their ship, the Carpathia, picked up 700 cold and bedraggled survivors of the Titanic disaster. For the first time since 1912, Mr.Mauro's small and extremely rare book reflecting on the lessons of the disaster is available. Using his knowledge of the scriptures, Mauro talks of the religious, spiritual and theological background to the catastrophe.

ISBN: 9781448650743 / Angielski / Miękka / 260 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. "Where did they come from, and where did they go?" These simple questions led author Claudia Goudschaal on a quest to find and record the working boats that visited the shores of Leelanau County, Michigan. The result is this compendium of the schooners and small wooden steamers of 1835-1900-a time of rapid change, of fortunes made and lost, of storms and shipwrecks, and of ordinary working life, too.

Transatlantic Liners
ISBN: 9780747810872 / Angielski / Miękka / 64 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Prior to air travel there was only one way to cross the Atlantic: by ship. By the late nineteenth century, steam ships dominated the transatlantic passenger trade, growing exponentially in size as maritime technology improved and as more immigrants poured from Europe into the New World. As the liners got bigger, the scope for luxury increased, so that a substantial part of ships such as Titanic would be given over to sumptuous dining saloons, lounges, smoking rooms and even gymnasia for the most affluent passengers. Meanwhile, the bulk of passengers, the poor migrants with one-way tickets to...

My Welsh Masters
ISBN: 9781511956215 / Angielski / Miękka / 172 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. In the late 1990s I set about researching my family history on my father's side. I chose this branch to research simply because I knew very little about this side of my family. After some four years or so of my research it became clear that this family during the nineteenth and into the twentieth century was very involved with the sea and the maritime life, not only of Cardigan and South Ceredigion's coastal ports and landing places but also the oceans of the world. Their lives on those great sailing ships to far away mysterious destinations were often thought of as perhaps adventurous,...

Narrow Boats
ISBN: 9781445669977 / Angielski / Miękka / 64 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. The traditional cargo-carrying narrowboat - recently voted one of the 100 icons of England - emerged with the construction of the English narrow canal system and lasted in regular use until 1970 when the last regular long distance contract was lost. Up until then, working boat families lived aboard according to their own culture and work ethic. Narrow Boats explores this in its historical context, explains why their anachronistic way of life persisted for so long, and looks at why and how it has changed. The vessels evolved as the horse gave way to steam and diesel power and boatyards...

Shipbuilding in Britain
ISBN: 9780747807292 / Angielski / Miękka / 64 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. In 1913 the shipyards of Britain were responsible for building half of all the world's ships. At the Clyde in Scotland at this time a new ship was launched every eighteen hours. For decades Britain was at the forefront of shipbuilding; the history and economy of towns such as Belfast, Liverpool and the Clyde in Scotland were dominated by the industry and thousands were employed within it. Shipbuilding in Britain looks at the subject's long history, back to the Middle Ages through to the advent of steam, providing a comprehensive guide to a transformed industry.

P&O : A History
ISBN: 9780747811701 / Angielski / Miękka / 64 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. All the romance of travel at sea is captured in the long history of P&O. From humble beginnings in the 1830s, The Peninsular & Oriental Steam Navigation Company grew to dominate British mercantile shipping for much of the 19th, and a good deal of the 20th, centuries. Initially the company's paddle steamers carried Her Majesty's Mail, as the name implies, to the Iberian Peninsular, but over time P&O extended its routes across the Mediterranean, and onwards to the Middle East, Far East and Australasia. Besides the mail P&O liners carried specie, as well as such commodities as silk, tea, and...

Sailors' Language: A Collection of Sea-terms and their Definitions
ISBN: 9781910146132 / Angielski / Miękka / 156 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. From Mr. Clark Russell: "This little volume is the fruits of an occasional spell of leisure. It is offered to the public because many might be glad to possess a cheap book of convenient size that would enable them to satisfy themselves without trouble about the meaning of nautical words often met with, but not always intelligible. I do not pretend that it is exhaustive---scores of words of which I may never have heard, are no doubt wanting; nor will I affirm that every term is accurately defined, though I have done my best to be exact." The Publisher is pleased to be able to offer this new...
