Paperback. Condizione: New. Print on Demand. This book proposes an extensive plan to enhance communication by ship between Great Britain and the western world. The author, an experienced engineer, suggests using steam-powered vessels for greater speed and efficiency on routes between England and various destinations such as Cana…da, the West Indies, Jamaica, and Brazil. He argues that this plan would have economic and political advantages, as well as benefits for the general public. Detailed calculations support the author's argument that using this technology would be more cost-effective than the existing system, and he offers specific routes, distances, and timetables for the proposed plan. The book also touches on the need for reliable coal supplies at strategic locations and emphasizes the importance of well-trained crews and proper vessel maintenance. The author also includes an appendix containing valuable information such as vessel dimensions and further details on the proposed routes. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format.
