Paying for an Enlarged European Union

Paying for an Enlarged European Union

After the launch of the euro, the European Union is facing critical decisions about its future budget: how it raises the money it spends, what to spend it on, and where to spend it. The negotiations are complex and highly controversial. This new report from the Federal Trust sets out the issues involved and proposes solutions. Charles Jenkins, the author of the report, is the distinguished European editor of the Economist Intelligence Unit. The essential contradictions in the assembled positions of the member states are exposeed, The report suggests that the prospects of enlarging the Union will be damaged if existing states do not show more flexibility. All must make concessions in the interest of the Union as a whole. Jenkins argues the the United Kingdom should show williongness to compromise on its rebate in exchange for concessions by other states, not least in agricultural reform. This report is a short but incisive guide to the Agenda 2000 debate, to the issues which will dominate the European Council in Berlin, and to the Union's prospects of further enlargement.

The rich variety of transport in the London area - stretching out as far as the one time limit of London Transport's green bus operation - is reflected in this colour album from Martin Jenkins and Charles Roberts. Both authors have long-standing connections with the Capital and, using mainly previously unpublished colour views from the period 1948-1969, have assembled a remarkable array of views covering all modes of transport. The reader is taken on a fascinating journey of discovery, not knowing what will be around the next corner encountering buses, trams and trolleybuses; main line steam, diesel and electric; London Transport electric and steam as well as little known industrial railways; activities on the Thames, in docks and on canals; liners, ferries and pleasure steamers; plus aviation and even a coal merchant's horse drawn cart. The images have been selected wherever possible to show changing streetscapes, buildings and fashions and will appeal to those who remember the period as well as the London of today. The stunning colour reproduction brings the pictures to life, as do informative captions. The book is a tribute to those photographers who had the foresight to record scenes before they were swept away in the name of progress.
Transport Recalled: North and Mid-Wales

Transport Recalled: North and Mid-Wales

This book takes readers on a spectacular journey across North and Mid-Wales in the thirty-year period from the mid-1950s onwards. In full colour, it features scenic railway main lines and branches; ports, canals and shipping including the Liverpool & North Wales Steamship Company; cable and electric tramways; all manner of connecting bus and coach services in urban and rural settings; and a few surprises along the way. Highlights include superb views of the trams owned by Llandudno & Colwyn Bay Electric Railway; long-gone branch lines; much-loved locomotive types; very rare colour views of some Crosville bus types; and a remarkable assembly of horse drawn, steam-powered and electrically-operated narrow gauge railways which survived in industrial locations barely changed in well over a century. These include the imposing slate quarry settings of Dinorwic and Penrhyn, recorded by intrepid photographers, who captured the arduous and dangerous working conditions of the miners as well as the hustle and bustle of the internal rail systems and their links to the coastal ports. The historic nature of these sites has now been recognised globally, with the awarding of UNESCO World Heritage status to the Slate Landscape of Northwest Wales. With the authors drawing on their own early personal memories, this book should evoke nostalgic memories for local residents as well as for those who were fortunate enough to have holidays or arrive as day-trippers. It will also hopefully encourage today's travellers to seek out the spectacular coastlines, dramatic hills and mountains, rolling countryside and farmland - not to mention the Great Little Trains of Wales - for which the region is renowned.
Merseyside Transport

Merseyside Transport

KEY PUBLISHING LTD

Merseyside can claim, with some justification, to have provided the transport enthusiast with a greater variety of transport modes than anywhere else in Britain. By the 1950s, with many long-standing scenes about to disappear, photographers began faithfully to record what they saw in colour. It is these images, including road, rail, sea and other modes of transport, that illustrate this nostalgic pictorial portrait of key aspects of the richly varied scene. Taking the reader on a journey from Liverpool and its suburbs to Birkenhead and Wallasey, with one small detour to include views of the remarkable Runcorn Transporter Bridge, this book gives a full-colour view of the historic transport that was part of the Merseyside townscape from the 1950s to the 1970s.
