1942386 pages. Bibliography. "Written as the result of several years' extensive and intensive study of the role of the Federal Government in establishing labor and safety standards in the maritime industry. The matters dealt with extend over a period of about 150 years... The present war, with its extraordinary need for an efficient merchant marine, and the recent transfer of the Bureau of Marine Inspection and Navigation from the Department of Commerce to the Commandant of the U.S. Coast Guard... clearly demonstrates the importance of Federal control over labor and safety standards in the merchant marine during the national emergency. Chapters include: Seamen's Need for Protection; Recruitment of Personnel, and Training Facilities for Seamen; Collective Bargaining and Seamen's Organization; Seamen's Right to Strike, and Settling Labor Disputes; Regulation of Seamen's Working and Living Conditions at Sea; Regulation for Seamen's Working and Living Conditions in Port; Safety of Life and Property at Sea; Inspection and Enforcement of Legal Standards; Past Achievements and Future Problems; Specific Conclusions; Appendices of statistics such as development of the American Merchant Marine as to Tonnage and Foreign Trade from 1789 to 1940, Nationality of Seamen, Strikes in Water Transportation, Average Seaman Wages, Casualties of the American Merchant Marine, and more. Top corner of front free endpaper neatly clipped. Prior owner's details neatly in pencil upon front free endpaper else unmarked. Notary Public's blind stamp atop half-title page. Average wear.

It is the story of what happened to one-half of the British people - the half that now, generally speaking, votes Labour - in the long, dark tunnel between the rather confused half-light into which it is emerging today and the green land far away inhabited by our eighteenth- and seventeenth-century ancestors." - Arthur Bryant (in 1947).

Published by Trade Life Books this paperback is a fantastic piece of sports memorabilia. Mark David McGwire born October 1 1963 nicknamed "Big Mac" is an American former professional baseball first baseman. He played 16 seasons in Major League Baseball MLB for the Oakland Athletics and St. Louis Cardinals from 1986 to 2001. He won two World Series championships one with Oakland as a player in 1989 and one with St. Louis as a coach in 2011. One of the most prolific home run hitters in baseball history McGwire hit 583 home runs during his career which ranked 5th-most in MLB history at the time of his retirement and currently ranks 11th. He holds the major-league career record for at bats per home run ratio 10.6 and is the former record holder for both home runs in a single season 70 in 1998 and home runs hit by a rookie 49 in 1987. McGwire led the major leagues in home runs in five different seasons and set the major-league record for home runs hit in a four-season period from 1996 to 1999 with 245. He demonstrated exemplary patience as a batter producing a career .394 on-base percentage OBP and twice leading the major leagues in bases on balls. McGwire also led the league in runs batted in once on-base percentage twice and slugging percentage four times. Injuries cut short even greater potential as he reached 140 games played in just eight of his 16 MLB seasons. Injuries particularly cut into his playing time in 2000 and 2001 and factored into his decision to retire. A right-handed batter and thrower McGwire stood 6 feet 5 inches tall and weighed 245 pounds during his playing career. With the Cardinals in 1998 McGwire joined Cubs slugger Sammy Sosa in a chase for the single-season home-run record set by Roger Maris in 1961. McGwire surpassed Maris and finished with 70 home runs a record that Barry Bonds would break three years later with 73. After his playing career ended McGwire demonstrated coaching ability personally assisting players such as Matt Holliday Bobby Crosby and Skip Schumaker before accepting an official role as hitting coach with an MLB team. On October 26 2009 Cardinals manager Tony La Russa confirmed that McGwire would become the club's fifth hitting coach of La Russa's tenure with the Cardinals. Trade Life Books, Incorporated paperback

1988Fine Fine English Original bdg. Dust wrapper. Roy. 8vo. (23 x 16 cm). In English. [xii], 291, [1] p. First English Edition. Haci Ömer Sabanci was the founder of the Sabanci Group, one of Europe's largest industrial empires. By the time of his death in 1966, the family business included farms and orchards, a construction firm, two vegetable-oil factories, a cotton-gin, a flour-mill, the enormous Bossa Textile Plants, one of the first privately owned Turkish banks (Akbank) and an insurance company (Aksigorta). In 1921 the young Ömer left his village in Anatolia to seek his fortune in Adana. He arrived there a week after its liberation from occupying French forces by the Nationalists led by Mustafa Kemal. The city's economy was shattered by the First World War. With a capacity for punishing physical toil, an unstoppable energy and an insatiable thirst for financial adventure, Haci Ömer rose in a few years from lowly cotton washer to Adana's leading cotton magnate. He was exactly the new kind of entrepreneur that the fledgling post-Ottoman state was looking for. Born.
