Book Description
Excerpt from Seaborne Trade, Vol. 1: The Cruiser Period; With Maps In the execution of this task it has been necessary to touch at some length on the effect of those financial and economic reactions of the war which powerfully affected seaborne trade, though they had no direct connection with naval operations. The treatment of these more general causes of economic disturbance has, however, been sub ordinated, so far as possible, to the development of the main theme - the effects, whether direct or indirect, of naval activity on the ow of trade, and the measures adopted to counteract them.

Author: Philip Parker
Publisher: Protico
ISBN: 9781844861415
Category : Commerce
Languages : en
Pages : 0
Book Description
For centuries trade has been vital to the growth and prosperity of societies. The ancient world saw the expansion of Western Asian, Mediterranean and Polynesian civilizations as transport networks for trade were established. These routes were instrumental in founding urban centres and trading ports that became ethnically and culturally diverse hubs of commerce and learning. Later, imperial expansion reached far-flung corners of the world, bringing all manner of goods to a mass populace. The Great Trade Routes examines the principal trade networks throughout history. Encompassing coastal and trans-oceanic maritime trade, inland waterway traffic, and overland trade, it traces the steps of the pioneering explorers and merchants who pushed into remote regions across the globe. Filled with fascinating historical detail, exotic locales, and a wealth of illustrations, this book analyzes the importance of trade to commercial and cultural exchange, focusing on great routes such as the Silk Road, the Grand Trunk, Via Maris, Hanseatic and Mediterranean sea-routes, tea and grain races and passages to the New World. From cargoes of semi-precious stones and metals to textiles, foodstuffs and luxury goods such as furs, silk and spices, this fascinating work examines the routes that were established to transport an astounding variety of lucrative goods, giving an expansive overview from the pre-classical period to the modern post-industrial age.

Seaborne Trade, Vol. 2
Author: Charles Ernest Fayle
Publisher: Forgotten Books
ISBN: 9780366374311
Category : Reference
Languages : en
Pages : 456
Book Description
Excerpt from Seaborne Trade, Vol. 2: From the Opening of the Submarine Campaign to the Appointment of the Shipping Controller, With Maps Further, importing power is not solely a question of the tonnage available, but of the economy and efficiency with which it is employed. The annual carrying-power of the ships depends on the size and character of their cargoes, their employment in trades for which they are suited by their construction, the proportion of laden to ballast voyages, and the number of voyages made. The number of voyages made depends on the length of the routes, and the speed with which the ships can be loaded and discharged. Turn-round in port depends, in its turn, on readiness of cargo at the ports of shipment and on the facilities for distribution to inland centres from the ports of discharge.
