Book Synopsis Trains of the Isle of Man by : Stan Basnett
Download or read book Trains of the Isle of Man written by Stan Basnett and published by . This book was released on 2008-07-02 with total page 96 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Transport features of the Isle of Man is the collective title for a series of books presenting a photographic record of various modes of transport to, from and in the Isle of Man as recorded by a number of writers living, on the island and seen from an island perspective. This is the first book to be produced in the series and it documents in pictures the twilight years of the operation of the Isle of Man Railway under the original company which had started running in 1873. The author of the book is perhaps best known for his photographs of shipping rather than railways although he has been taking photographs of the island's railways for over 50 years. Here he presents some unusual photographs of the steam railway taken in the late 1950s up to the time that the railway was leased to an independent operator in 1967. The period between then and modern times will be the subject of two further publications in the series.

This book was released on 2000-01-01 with total page 488 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A New History of the Isle of Man will provide a new benchmark for the study of the island’s history. In five volumes, it will survey all aspects of the history of the Isle of Man, from the evolution of the natural landscape through prehistory to modern times. The Modern Period is the first volume to be published. Wide in coverage, embracing political, constitutional, economic, labor, social and cultural developments in the nineteenth and twentieth centuries, the volume is particularly concerned with issues of image, identity and representation. From a variety of angles and perspectives, contributors explore the ways in which a sense of Manxness was constructed, contested, continued and amended as the little Manx nation underwent unprecedented change from debtors’ retreat through holiday playground to offshore international financial center.

Passenger boats and freighters are seen at ports on the island and on the mainland. There is comprehensive coverage of the Peel, Ramsey and Port Erin lines operated by the Isle of Man Railway with some outstanding views taken during the 1950s, together with excellent portraits of most of the locomotives, as well carriages, vans, wagons, lorries, stations, staff and signal boxes. Also covered are Douglas Station and its environs, St John's junction and the Sunday 'specials' to Braddan. Many of the rich mix of bus types operated by the railway subsidiary, Isle of Man Road Services, are seen in a variety of locations. Included are some of the vehicles delivered just before and shortly after the Second World War. There are good views of the fascinating Ramsey Pier Tramway and its unusual rolling stock, as well as rare scenes taken as early as 1953 on the Groudle Glen Railway. For anyone who loves the Isle of Man and its wealth of vintage transport, this book provides a remarkable trip down memory lane and a colorful reminder of some of its lost glories. The book is dedicated to the memory of John McCann who took brilliant color views on the island starting in 1953.

Book Synopsis The Isle of Man by : Vaughan Robinson
Download or read book The Isle of Man written by Vaughan Robinson and published by Liverpool University Press. This book was released on 1990-01-01 with total page 328 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book, drawing on wide experience of the Isle of Man, describes, interprets and explains the features that make the Island’s physical and human landscapes so distinctive and give it a unique sense of place. Although the editors have taken a strongly geographical approach to their theme, the book is unparalleled in writings on the Isle of Man in the broad range of contributions it has assembled: geology, quaternary science, geomorphology, archaeology, history, natural history, political science, demography, social policy and economics. The book definitively reviews current geographical knowledge relating to the Isle of Man, bringing together hitherto fragmented, scattered and inaccessible work. Particular emphasis is placed upon the way in which geographers are returning to their intellectual roots with a renewed focus on both the distinctiveness and sense of place. By helping readers to understand the processes that formed, and continue to change, the Isle of Man’s unique physical and human landscapes, this book aims both to inform and to enhance enjoyment of the Island.
