The Color Line and the Assembly Line - Elizabeth Esch - Bog - University of California Press - Plusbog.dk

The Color Line and the Assembly Line - Elizabeth Esch - Bog - University of California Press - Plusbog.dk

The Color Line and the Assembly Line tells a new story of the impact of mass production on society. Global corporations, based originally in the United States, have played a part in making gender and race everywhere. Focusing on Ford Motor Company's rise to become the largest, richest, and most influential corporation in the world, The Color Line and the Assembly Line takes on the traditional story of Fordism. Contrary to popular thought the assembly line was perfectly compatible with all manner of racial practice in the United States, Brazil, and South Africa. Each country's distinct forms of racial hierarchies in the 1920s and 1930s informed Ford's often divisive labor processes. Confirming racism as an essential component in the creation of global capitalism, Elizabeth Esch also adds an important new lesson showing how local patterns gave capitalism its distinctive features.

The Cuckoo Line - Kevin Robertson - Bog - Crecy Publishing - Plusbog.dk

The Cuckoo Line - Kevin Robertson - Bog - Crecy Publishing - Plusbog.dk

Serving the Sussex countryside from Rotherfield through to Polegate, the ''Cuckoo Line'' was a fine example of a cross-country railway branch line which failed to survive into the modern era. Serving Sussex towns including Mayfield and Heathfield, a single line of rails provided a service to the local community for over 80 years before falling casualty to the axe of Dr Beeching, with the last passenger trains running in 1965. Half a century later the opportunity has come to take a new look at this railway. The course of the ''Cuckoo Line'' has now all but disappeared from the landscape - replaced by roads, housing and industrial development, but this important new book records the line, its stations and rolling stock through-out its history. Using three new sources of previously unpublished photographs and descriptive notes on train and locomotive working, The Cuckoo Line presents a vivid portrait of the line and a way of life lost in the half century since closure

White Star Line - Janette Mccutcheon - Bog - Amberley Publishing - Plusbog.dk

White Star Line - Janette Mccutcheon - Bog - Amberley Publishing - Plusbog.dk

White Star Line: A Photographic History is the story of the famous shipping line which was in existence for only 70-odd years but which managed, from its first voyage in 1871, to its merger with Cunard in 1934, to build some of the most luxurious ships afloat, including the three giant sisters, Olympic, Titanic and Britannic. Many previously unpublished images tell the story of the White Star Line from its inception in 1869 to the sc rapping of the last ship in the fleet in 1960. Only one vessel survives from the White Star Line, The small passenger tender Nomadic, built specially to service the Olympic and Titanic at Cherbourg and all that remains of the other ships are photos and small items from on board.
