Taschenbuch. Condizione: Gebraucht. Gebraucht - Sehr gut Leichte Lagerspuren -It is now more than twenty years since a proposal was first mooted to hold an international tunnelling symposium in Britain. At the time of the first symposium, held in London in 1976, the Channel Tunnel pro ject had just been shelved. Last weekend a charity walk was held in the finished tunnel, which will be open for business later in the year. Tunnels have figured prominently, and at times spectacularly, in the development of national and international links and it is hoped that such links gather pace in the future. It is particularly pleasing that Alastair Biggart of Storebrelt has agreed to deliver the twenty-sixth Sir Julius Wernher Memorial Lecture of the Institution of Mining and Metallurgy, entitled 'The changing face of tunnelling', at the start of this event. Although almost every edition of the technical journals on tunnelling reports another Pds. 1 billion scheme somewhere in the world, it would be unfair of me to suggest that tunnelling is restricted to these prestigious schemes for major transport links. Much of the work that makes mod ern life possible receives hardly a mention outside the technical press and one suspects that society at large applies the 'out of sight, out of mind' attitude even more readily to underground construction than it does to other forms of engineering. Clearly, there is a contiiming need to improve the capacity and performance of our infrastructure, while hav ing a careful regard for the environment. 844 pp. Englisch.

Libro Prima edizione
Stapled. Condizione: Very Good. No Jacket. Ellen B T Pyle, J.C. Leyendecker (2), Gordon Grant, & Maurice Bower (covers), H R Ballinger ( O Careless Love), Anton Otto Fischer (Mr Gallup Gets Command), Arthur William Brown (Take a Witness), Johm La Gatta (The Curfew Tolls) (illustratore). First Edition. The September 21 & 28, October 5, 12 & 19, 1935 issues of the Saturday Evening Post containing parts 1 through 5 of 5 (complte serialization) of O Careless Love by Rex Stout, one of his last attempts at mainstream fiction. The first publication of this work preceding book publication, and arguably it's true first edition. Additional fiction includes part 5, 6 & 7 of 7 of Furious Young Man, a novel by I A R Wylie (9/21 & 28, & 10/5), Mr Gallup Gets Command, a short story by Norman Reilly Raine, Take a Witness, a short story by Arthur Train (9/28), The Curfew Tolls, a short story by Stephen Vincent Benet (10/5), & Christopher Columbus, a poem by Ogden Nash. The 10/5 issue includes an article about Louisiana's colorful & bombastic senator Huey P Long (Paradox in Pajamas by Herman B Deutsch). Cover art by Ellen B T Pyle (9/21 - Girls Sipping Sodas), J.C. Leyendecker (9/28 - She?s My Girl! & 10/19 - Southbound Hitchhiker, a very striking ethnic image), Gordon Grant (10/5 - Model Ship), & Maurice Bower (10/12 - Quarterback Pass). The issues are in very good shape. The 9/21 issue has lLight wear to the edges with a soil streak along the spine of the front cover; the 9/28 issue is similar with some pen marks at the lower left of the front cover near the spine; foxing to the edges of the front cover of the 10/5 issue, & the 10/19 has some soiling along the edges of the front cover. The 10/12 issue is good only with the front cover separated p from the bottom about 2/3 the way plus other chips and small closed tear, mostly along the spine. A very good set, & exceedingly unusual, set with the complete serialization of an early Rex Stout novel. A large oversize lot that may require additional postage.
