Produktinformationen zu „People, Place and Power on the Nineteenth-Century Waterfront / Progress in Mathematics (PDF)“

This book explores the tenuous existence of seafarers, divided between their time on the ocean and their residence in sailortown economies geared to exploit them. Particular attention is given both to the contribution of seafarers as a global workforce into the nineteenth century, and to their help in creating vibrant multicultural enclaves in port cities worldwide. In addition, research explores the scandalized opinions of outside observers, challenging ideas about public behavior and relationships. Sailortown myths persisted far into the twentieth century, to the detriment of older waterfront districts and their residents, and readers will find this book is invaluable in casting new light on forgotten communities, whose lives bridged urban, maritime and global histories.

Pressezitat

“This book provides the reader with a thorough, detailed and nuanced understanding of sailortown during the nineteenth century. … Milne’s book shines a light on a much under-researched area that has fallen between the historical sub-themes of maritime and urban history. … Milne has produced a book which will undoubtedly become an important contribution to both urban and maritime history.” (Brad Beaven, The International Journal of Maritime History, Vol. 29 (3), August, 2017)
