Excerpt from Casual Labour at the Docks The aim of this book is to give in short outline an account of the casual labour system, if system it may be called, as it prevails at most docks to-day; and by way of illustration to Show in some detail how it affects the lives of men and of their families in the neighbourhood in which I have made my home. In common with all students of casual labour I owe much to Mr. W. H. Beveridge, whose book on Unemployment is the classic Of the subject. I have also received a great deal Of assistance from Mr. Frederic Keeling. I am indebted to a docker friend who read the book in manuscript and assured me that he could detect no glaring misdescriptions to the editor Of the Baptist Times for allowing me to use one or two articles which I wrote for him to Miss M. E. Bulkley, Of the London School of Economics, for reading my proofs and helping me to get the book through the press and to Mr. John Wilson, a fellow-resident at Mansfield House, for the photograph which appears as frontispiece, and for much companionship during my inquiries.

WINNER OF THE 2008 INTERNATIONAL IMPAC DUBLIN LITERARY PRIZE De Niro’s Game plunges readers into the timely story of two young men caught in Lebanon’s civil war. Bassam and George, best friends in childhood, have grown to adulthood in war-torn Beirut. Now they must choose their futures: to stay in the city and consolidate power through crime, or to go into exile abroad, alienated from the only existence they have known. Told in a distinctive, captivating voice that fuses vivid cinematic imagery and page-turning plot with the measured strength and beauty of Arabic poetry, De Niro’s Game is an explosive portrait of life in a war zone, and a powerful meditation on what comes after.

Excerpt from Howrah The deep channel alternates from left to right and vice cersa according to the windings of the river, except where deflected by the large tributaries which debouch into it at the southern limit of this district. Proceeding from Howrah Bridge, the deep channel runs on the Calcutta side in the Calcutta Reach past the Fort and Kidderpore to Garden Reach. At Rajganj, Opposite Hangman Point, it crosses over to the Howrah Side, and follows the Sankrail Reach as far as Melancholy (menikhali) Point. It then zigzags from left to right at each bend.

This study provides the opportunity to compare the hiring and employment practices, within the context of local conditions, as they exist in five major ports. It tells how efforts at regulation are influenced by the various institutions and by market constraints and describes the impact of the differences emanating from the industrial relations systems of each of the countries in which the port is located. In all these ports, the basic problem, to a large extent, is still that of casual employment and the author describes the repeated attempts to achieve a solution and analyzes in detail the efforts that failed and those that succeeded.

British car detective Jack Colby reaches back to WWII to uncover the deadly secrets of a legendary 1937 Alfa Romeo Spyder. Jack Colby’s old friend, the world-renowned classic-car portraitist Giovanni Donati, has a sweet new gig: paint an exceptionally rare Alfa Romeo Spyder that was last seen racing in Italy’s famed Mille Miglia just before Hitler came to power. Ever since, it’s been resting on its laurels at Plumshaw Manor. But mere hours after he arrives, Giovanni is arrested for murdering a member of the family at their sprawling English estate. Could he have done it? Is he being framed? If so, why? The investigation leads Jack back to the Second World War—and forward to a vicious rivalry between two aristocratic clans. Now Jack has to dig through a long and mysterious history of betrayal, jealousy, and secret love affairs to prove Giovanni’s innocence. But nothing is as it seems—except for the danger Jack faces as he draws close to the truth.

This book is about the political views of the 'classic' poor of London's East End in the late Victorian and Edwardian periods. The residents of this area have been historically characterized as abjectly poor, casually employed, slum dwellers with a poverty-induced apathy toward political solutions interspersed with occasional violent displays of support for populist calls for protectionism, imperialism, or anti-alien agitation. These factors, in combination, have been thought to have allowed the Conservative Party to politically dominate the East End in this period. This study demonstrates that many of these images are wrong. Economic conditions in the East End were not as uniformly bleak as often portrayed. The workings of the franchise laws also meant that those who possessed the vote in the East End were generally the most prosperous and regularly employed of their occupational group. Conservative electoral victories in the East End were not the result of poverty. Political attitudes in the East End were determined to a far greater extent by issues concerning the 'personal' in a number of senses. The importance given to individual character in the political judgements of the East End working class was greatly increased by a number specific local factors. These included the prevalence of particular forms of workplace structure, and the generally somewhat shorter length of time on the electoral register of voters in the area. Also important was a continuing attachment to the Church of England amongst a number of the more prosperous working class. In the place of many 'myths' about the people of the East End and their politics, this study provides a model that does not seek to explain the politics of the area in full, but suggests the point strongly that we can understand politics, and the formation of political attitudes, in the East End or any other area, only through a detailed examination of very specific localized community and workplace structures. This book challenges the idea that a 'Conservatism of the slums' existed in London's East End in the Victorian and Edwardian period. It argues that images of abjectly poor residents who supported Conservative appeals about protectionism, imperialism, and anti-immigration are largely wrong. Instead, it was the support of better-off workers, combined with a general importance in the area of the 'personal' in politics emphasized by local social and workplace structures, which delivered the limited successes that the Conservatives did enjoy.
