This title details the cover-up of one of the worst labour tragedies in American history. The authors conducted an archaeological dig of the site and include their observations. It includes many illustrations. It will appeal to readers interested in Irish and Irish-American history, labour history, and the history of technology and medicine. In 1832, fifty-seven Irish Catholic workers were brought to the United States to lay one of the most difficult miles of American railway, Duffy's Cut of the Pennsylvania Railroad. In the eyes of the company, these men were expendable. Deaths were common during the building of the railway but this stretch was worse than most. When cholera swept the camp, basic medical attention and community support was denied to them. In the end, all fifty-seven men died and were buried in a mass unmarked grave. Their families in Ireland were never told what happened to them. The company did its best to cover up the incident, which was one of the worst labour tragedies in U.S. history. This book tells the story of these men, the sacrifices they made, and the mistreatment that claimed their lives. learn how Irish labour built the railroads, and about the impact of the Great Cholera Epidemic on American life. The authors argue that the annihilation of the work crew came about because of the extreme conditions of their employment, the prejudice of the surrounding community, and vigilante violence that kept them isolated. The authors' archaeological digs at the site and meticulous historical research shed light on this tragic chapter in American labour history.
Arrested Development takes a hard look at the state of Nigeria's shipping sector and concludes that the sector has failed to live up to expectation. Inconsistent government policies, mediocrity, poor planning, and a general lack of understanding of the role of shipping in national development have all contributed to the sorry state of the shipping sector. The author traced the history of Nigeria's shipping sector from the precolonial era to the present time and concludes that a lot more needs to be done if meaningful development of the sector is to be attained.

Concorde can surely claim to be the world's favourite aircraft. Its sleek lines and glamorous design made it an icon recognised all over the world. Travelling at twice the speed of sound at 60,000ft, to fly Concorde was the dream of many and the regular pastime of the lucky few. The rich and famous graced its all-first-class cabins, some time and again; Sir David Frost notably undertook around twenty flights a year on Concorde for an average of twenty years. Photographer Adrian Meredith spent many years photographing Concorde from every conceivable angle. Here he has collated his artwork to present a full-colour account of this remarkable and memorable aircraft. Including information and photos from behind the scenes as well as significant milestones and detail on the passengers and personalities on board, this is a unique and beautiful photographic tribute. In this new and updated edition, ten years after Concorde's momentous last flight, Meredith looks at the potential of supersonic and hypersonic travel with fascinating speculations and images of what the future holds.
New manual on Honda's popular PCX125 scooter, also covering the Europe and US market PCX150. The PCX is popular with commuters and delivery firms and was the first two-wheeler to feature idle stop technology. With several updates since its introduction in 2010 the PCX remains a strong model in Honda's range. This manual from Haynes covers all versions of the PCX right through to the current 2019 model.
Each Haynes manual provides specific and detailed instructions for performing everything from basic maintenance and troubleshooting to a complete overhaul of the machine, in this case the Kawasaki Z750 & Z1000, model years 2003 through 2008.

A typical Haynes manual covers: general information; troubleshooting; lubrication and routine maintenance; engine top end; engine lower end; primary drive, clutch and external shift mechanism; transmission and internal shift mechanism; engine management system; electrical system; wheels, tires and drivebelt; front suspension and steering; rear suspension; brakes; body, and color wiring diagrams. An index makes the manual easy to navigate.
