Download or read book Manchester of the East written by S P Mehra and published by Bloomsbury Publishing. This book was released on 2020-11-18 with total page 222 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Kanpur was a tiny hamlet until the railways arrived in India, and later a British garrison. The bloody events during the 1857 War of Independence led to a clampdown on the city, and under rigorous British supervision, industry began. The wars that Britain was fighting in South Africa, Russia and Afghanistan furthered the development of Kanpur into a hub of supply for the best military boots and other leather goods. Mills were set up and by 1900s, Kanpur became synonymous with high-quality products and top-of-the-class mills. Both Indians and Europeans were responsible for this transformation of a tiny dot on the map of the Indian subcontinent into the world's best supply-centre for leather, cotton, jute and other materials. In this rivetting account of the transformation of a hamlet into what became known as the Manchester of the East, Suraj Prasad Mehra describes the evolution of the city over two hundred years from the 1800s. He introduces us to events and incidents as well as individuals and governments that were responsible for making Kanpur what it eventually became and what it is today.
Download or read book Reclaiming East Manchester written by Len Grant and published by . This book was released on 2010 with total page 184 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A new book has been published to mark the end of the New Deal for Communities programme in east Manchester.Reclaiming East Manchester: Ten years of resident-led regeneration is by photographer and writer Len Grant, who was commissioned back in 2008 to produce a book to chart the development of the area during the decade-long NDC programme. I initially assumed the book would be heavily PR-y, but I was pleasantly surprised. Through a fairly impressive portfolio of photographs as well as interviews with regeneration professionals who were involved in the work and dozens of residents, Grant documents what east Manchester was like to live in before the NDC programme began, key events in the history of the scheme, problems that were encountered and how residents feel about the area now.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from With Manchesters in the East Our Battalion of the Manchesters was typical of the old Territorial Force, whose memory has already faded in the glory of the greater Army created during the War, but whose services in the period between the retreat from Mons and the coming into action of "Kitchener's Men" claim national gratitude. Their earlier history hardly emerges from parochialism. Founded in 1859 and recruited mainly from the southerly suburbs of Manchester, the Battalion lived through the common vicissitudes of the English Volunteer unit. It knew the ridicule and disparagement of the hypercritical and cosmopolitan, the too easy praise of the hurried inspecting general, the enthusiasm of the camp fire, the chill of the wet afternoon on a wintry rifle range at Crowden.

Download or read book Manchester written by Terry Wyke and published by . This book was released on 2018 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Manchester is one the world's most iconic cities. Not only was it the first industrial city, it can claim to be the first post-industrial city. This book uses historic maps and unpublished and original plans to chart the dramatic growth and transformation of Manchester as it grew rich on its cotton trade from the late 18th century, experienced periods of boom and bust through the Victorian period, and began its post-industrial transformation in the 20th century. The Peterloo Massacre, the Bridgewater Canal, the railway revolution, Trafford Park industrial estate, the Ship Canal, Belle Vue theme park, Wythenshawe garden city, the 1996 IRA bomb, Coronation Street, iconic football stadiums, and MediaCity are just some of the events and places that have put Manchester on the world's perceptual map and are explored through a wealth of published and unpublished maps and plans in this sumptuously illustrated cartographic history.

Our Battalion of the Manchesters was typical of the old Territorial Force, whose memory has already faded in the glory of the greater Army created during the War, but whose services in the period between the retreat from Mons and the coming into action of "Kitchener's Men" claim national gratitude. Their earlier history hardly emerges from parochialism. Founded in 1859 and recruited mainly from the southerly suburbs of Manchester, the Battalion lived through the common vicissitudes of the English Volunteer unit. It knew the ridicule and disparagement of the hypercritical and cosmopolitan, the too easy praise of the hurried inspecting general, the enthusiasm of the camp fire, the chill of the wet afternoon on a wintry rifle range at Crowden. The South African War gave many a chance of active service, and infused more serious and systematic training in the routine of the yearly Whitsuntide camps. At that time everything depended on the Regular officer who acted as adjutant, and officers and men owed much to the inspiring energy of Captain (now Colonel) W.P.E. Newbigging, C.M.G., D.S.O., of the Manchesters, whose adjutancy (1902-1907) meant a great step in their efficiency. The letter "Q," which signifies success in all examinations required by the War Office, figured in the Army List after most of our officers' names during this vivid and strenuous phase. For the rest, the pre-War period turned mainly on the fortnightly camps and occasional Regimental exercises. Salisbury Plain, the Isle of Man, Aldershot and a few North Country areas are full of memories of manoeuvre and recreation in a peaceful age. Regimental exercises filled weekends in Cheshire or the West Riding. We are delighted to publish this classic book as part of our extensive Classic Library collection.

Download or read book The regeneration of east Manchester written by Georgina Blakeley and published by Manchester University Press. This book was released on 2015-11-01 with total page 344 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: East Manchester has been the site of one of the most substantial regeneration projects internationally. The initiative in east Manchester confirmed the tag that the city is the ‘regeneration capital’ of the United Kingdom. While the book focuses on a single project, it has wider relevance to national and international regeneration initiatives. The book assesses the outcomes of the regeneration, although it demonstrates the difficulties in producing a definitive evaluation. It has a political focus and illuminates and challenges many assumptions underpinning three major current academic debates: governance, participatory democracy and ideology. The book is relevant to students of politics, geography, sociology, public administration and recent history but will also interest practitioners, academics and general readers interested in urban regeneration. Mancunians will also be fascinated by the rapidly changing face and character of their city as will those with an interest in Manchester’s football, the Commonwealth Games and Sportcity.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This electronic version has been made available under a Creative Commons (BY-NC-ND) open access license. The events of the Arab Uprisings posed an existential challenge to sovereign power across the Middle East. Whilst popular movements resulted in the toppling of authoritarian rule in Tunisia, Egypt and Yemen, other regimes were able to withstand these pressures. This book questions why some regimes fell whilst others were able to survive. Drawing on the work of political theorists such as Agamben and Arendt, Mabon explores the ways in which sovereign power is contested, resulting in the fragmentation of political projects across the region. Combining an innovative theoretical approach with interviews with people across the region and beyond, Mabon paints a picture of Middle Eastern politics dominated by elites seeking to maintain power and wealth, seemingly at whatever cost. This, for Mabon, is a consequence of the emergence and development of particular visions of political projects that harness or marginalise identities, communities, ideologies and faiths as mechanisms designed to ensure their survival. This book is essential reading for those interested in understanding why the uprisings took place, their geopolitical consequences, and why they are likely to happen again.
