ALLEN, D.H.

West Riding: V. 2 (Super Prestige)

dark blue, Venture Publications Ltd. 2005. (ISBN: 9781898432401). Paperback, 16.8 x 1.5 x 24 cm. Condition good, clean. West Riding 1 was published in early 2004, the year in which the West Riding Automobile Company would have celebrated its Centenary. It followed the company history from the tram era through to its loss of identity when finally absorbed by Arriva in 2000. In this second volume author David Allen now tracks the two major companies absorbed by West Riding, J Bullock and Sons (1928) Ltd (B & S Motor Services) of Featherstone in 1950 and then South Yorkshire Road Transport of Pontefract through Caldaire Holdings in 1994. Both those companies developed from the same Bullock family transport roots at the turn of the last century. Following the now established and popular Super Prestige format, this book has an extended introductory text and around 150 illustrations, many in colour, accompanied by detailed captions to complete the story of one of the most individual of the West Riding of Yorkshire operators. Good.

First Atlantic Liners

Garage A red large, Conway Maritime Press Ltd. 1997. (ISBN: 9780851776682). Hardcover. Ex library, good condition with dust jacket. ref ZKVQ With the introduction of steam and the development of early paddle steamers or "flappers" as the Americans called them, new problems of ship handling were encountered which required a specialized form of seamanship. This work seeks to discover, principally by the examination of the evidence in logs of several ocean-going steamers, just how the owners and seamen of the day contrived to make these vessels seaworthy and weatherly. In extreme conditions, paddle-wheel propulsion was often found inadequate and control of the ship only maintained with the help of sails. Sails also instilled passenger confidence, for breakdowns did occur, and were in fact vital to the success of the voyage by reducing fuel consumption and increasing speed. Masts and yards did, however, slow the steamer in strong headwinds and extra crew were needed to handle the canvas. Furthermore, by the end of the passage, paddle-wheel immersion was less efficient and the reduced stability adversely affected sailing performance. The solutions to all these problems form the core of the book, and it provides a picture of how the well-established traditions of the sailing ship were adapated to promote the development of the paddle ships and early screw vessels on the inhospitable seas of the North Atlantic.
