Book excerpt: The city of Edinburgh has always been innovative in its provision of transport ranging from the end of the 19th century when it leased land for the creation of a cable tramway network through operating the same when the lease ended in June 1919 to the current era when it trials a range of vehicles as it seeks to achieve zero carbon emissions by 2030. The company’s maintenance standards are sufficiently high that after 15 years of daily service withdrawn vehicles are valued by the second hand vehicle market and continue in further service with operators for a number of years before being scrapped. while 15 years is the normal working life with the company, this is being shortened as new vehicles are introduced to meet the zero carbon commitment. These changes have increased between 2011 and 2022 and the book illustrates them by photographs of the transport fleets – both buses and trams - operated during that period of change. The operator tries to remain loyal to one supplier but changes within the industry have resulted in a number of different vehicles being purchased; the rationale of the change in supplier is documented as the company returns to previous suppliers. The local transport scene has also seen services disrupted as operators providing services from outside the city boundaries have discontinued services leading to the city operator creating subsidiary companies to provide replacement services. These operate buses initially operated by the city fleet albeit adopting different livery styles that identify their relationship to the city’s transport network.

Habitats range from seacoast to moorland, from river and loch to woodland and meadow. In addition to this variety, there is the impact of man as manifested by agriculture, urbanisation, industry, and now climate change. Plant Life of Edinburgh and the Lothians presents an up-to-date account of this richness and will provide an essential basis for comparison with the flora and vegetation of the future

Book excerpt: This is a comprehensive and highly emotive volume, borne of years of intensive research and many trips to the battlefields of the Great War.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The McAllister family. Clifford McAllister father comes from a family who joined the Mormon Church in Ireland and emigrated to the Americas in the 19th Century. Descended from the Ancient Kings of Ireland from Tara Castle, they first moved to Alabama and later moved to Indiana where they became business people, teachers, doctors, attorneys and soldiers. Clifford's mother's family came from England to Virginia in the early 1700s and soon moved to Georgia, North Carolina and Alabama. Related to Winston Churchill, Prime Minister of England, they descend from the Merovingians Kings of Normandy, Welsh Kings, William The Conqueror, Robert de Bruce of Scotland and the Sea-Kings of Norway. A compilation of everything that has been done by other members of the family, there is still a lot of research to be done, and lots to learn about individuals in this amazing genealogy. Descended from powerful, enigmatic leaders of the past, they have paved the way for our future.
