Download or read book The Coming of the Comet written by Nick Robins and published by Seaforth Publishing. This book was released on 2012-10-10 with total page 198 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In August 1812 Henry BellÍs Comet, a revolutionary paddle steamer, made her first journey on the Clyde. This marked the start of extraordinary developments that completely transformed shipping and transport in Britain, Europe and the Americas. The paddle steamer soon became the key link with Empire, pushing the Honourable East India CompanyÍs wooden walls off the seas; it provided the all- important link with the Americas, and it offered emigrants to the New World a means of pushing westwards. ??In this fascinating new book Nick Robins analyses the remarkable impact of the paddle steamer and goes on to describe its development, both in terms of technology design and in relation to its effects on the transformation of nineteenth-century economies. He includes all Henry Bells disciples - the Burns brothers, Laird, Napier, Fulton, Syminton Cunard and Denny to name a few, and looks at their individual contributions. ??The impact of the paddle steamer on transport is difficult to overstate. It helped with the export of cotton from the American southern states, and with the transport of oil from BurmaÍs oil fields. The great stern wheelers of the Mississipi are legendary, but they also migrated to the Murray and Darling rivers in Australia, and to the Congo and Nile rivers in Africa, and the great rivers of Russia.??This wonderful story of nineteenth-century ingenuity will appeal to shipping enthusiasts and those with a wider interest in industrial history.

Download or read book Paddle Steamers of the Thames written by Peter Box and published by Arcadia Publishing (SC). This book was released on 2000 with total page 128 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The popularity of Thames paddle steamers as a means of transport began in the 1820s. They transported millions of holidaymakers along the river and to coastal resorts, initially transporting both cargo and passengers. By the 1860s these vessles were being supplanted by more modern, 'passenger-only' steamers. These new vessels often appeared only in the summer, hence the term 'butterfly boats' to describe them. By the time of the 1871 Bank Holidays Act, steamer routes were well established. The steamers offered a means of escape from the daily drudgery of work, to the 'glamorous' resorts of the Thames Estuary and, later, across the Channel. Until the First World War they were able to compete with other forms of transport and were still popular. However, by the mid-1930s the very concept of a paddle steamer was being threatened by the modern vessels that had appeared. In the late 1960s, the last paddlers were scrapped and with those vessels died - often literally - a Victorian heritage. A few survived in 'static roles' and today, still linger on. Of all the traditional Thames paddle steamers, only Medway Queen survives. She has returned to the Medway and her survival is the key aim of the Medway Queen Preservation Society. In Paddle Steamers of the Thames Peter Box manages to bring back the noises, smells and vibrations of this particular form of transport and an old-fashioned way of travelling at a slow, leisurely speed.
