For centuries it was far more efficient to move goods by water than by road. The end of the 18th century saw 2,000 miles of canal built in Britain: the Canal Age had begun.Constructing the canals consisted of a great deal of hard work and manual labour, headlines by individual names but mostly done by tens of thousands of men across Britain called navvies. Initially much like carting on roads, boating on canals grew as canal systems expanded across the country, but still required long hours, hard work and specific skills.This detailed and informative guide tells the story of the boats and their workers. From the professional leggers who walked boats through tunnels to lock keepers to canal children running ahead of the boats, original photographs and artefacts such as tug tickets and timetables show what life was like on the canal.A classic Pitkin guide to immerse readers in the world of canals in Britain, including a list of museums and heritage centres to provide further insight into the history of the canal network.

At the outbreak of World War Two, the Bank of England was shipping gold to America to purchase arms and munitions. In June 1940, RMS Niagara was secretly carrying 8 tons of British gold when it hit a German mine and sank off New Zealand. The Royal Navy declared salvage was impossible because the water was too deep, so the desperate Bank of England offered the job to a retired sea captain, John Williams. Within weeks, Williams hired a deep-sea diver, built an experimental diving bell, employed a team of misfits, and refloated a rusting hulk to use as a salvage ship. Then, against orders, Williams sailed into the minefield to search for the sunken liner. Over the coming months, the crew battled bureaucracy, storms, German mines, and each other, as they dove to record depths. But the closer they got to the gold, the more they realised they would be betrayed by the people who sent them on their mission. With exclusive access to diaries, reports, logbooks, correspondence and interviews, Jeff Maynard tells a story of underdogs overcoming insurmountable odds, and the people of a small coastal community who welcomed them, revealing the truth behind one of the most incredible adventures of the Second World War.

Few cars have left such a lasting mark as the Lotus Seven. First unveiled in 1957, its unmistakable silhouette remains instantly recognisable almost 70 years later. What began as a lightweight sports car from Lotus soon became a legend under the stewardship of Caterham Cars, who took over the design in 1973 after years as an official dealer. Richly illustrated with both historical and contemporary photographs, this book explores the complete story of the Seven, including: The background and history of the Lotus Seven (19571973), Details of the changing fortunes of Caterham Cars, including ownership, locations and milestones, Coverage of every Seven model produced Insightful discussion of key moments in the Sevens remarkable journey, Timeless, instantly recognisable and thrilling to drive, the Caterham Seven is nothing short of a motoring icon. First launched as the Lotus Seven in 1957, its unmistakable shape has endured for nearly seven decades. In the last few years, Caterham Cars has undergone a remarkable journey, including two changes of ownership, a bold but brief venture into Formula One and even experiments with bicycles, motorcycles and go-karts all of which have come and gone. However, through it all, the indomitable Seven has remained at the heart of the brand, still standing tall against all the odds. The company has also moved into three new premises (two of them related to the F1 team), culminating in the summer of 2024 with the opening of Dartford X a state-of-the-art factory where Caterham promises the Seven will continue to be built. This book brings the Sevens story right up to date, while also revisiting other notable chapters in Caterhams history, including past models like the 21 and the CSR. The Sevens journey is the story of an underdog that grew into a specialist car industry giant. Imitated by many but equalled by none, it remains the purest expression of driving pleasure. Road or track, there is a Seven for everyone.

One day I will look back and laugh, but not just yet. Harrys life had been stuck in neutral until he discovered Peggy lying in a field. It then promptly went into reverse. Is Peggy the romantic interest of this story or two tons of automotive scrap metal?Harrys subsequent restoration project takes us on a journey through a life that has more bumps than the A12 and a cast of eccentric characters who are caught up in the joy of attempting the impossible, just for the sheer love of it.This is the story of one mans attempt to restore an Austin 1100. Along the way it also becomes the story of one mans attempt to restore himself, and as anyone whos ever tried their hand at restoration knows, you cant rebuild something without taking it apart first.This book is for anyone who wants to follow their dream but has forgotten to take out breakdown insurance for it.

Produced between 1999 and 2004 in Modena coupé, Spider convertible and Challenge Stradale form, the Ferrari 360 marked a turning point for the brand. With its aluminium-spaceframe chassis and curvaceous new styling, it set the blueprint for two decades of Ferrari design and engineering.Offering improved ergonomics and everyday usability without sacrificing performance, the 360 remains one of the most accessible and desirable Ferraris, praised for its balance of practicality, power, and presence. Launched in 1999 with the elegant 360 Modena coupe, the Ferrari 360 marked a bold new chapter in Maranellos history. It was soon joined by the convertible 360 Spider and the lightweight, track-focused Challenge Stradale each a masterclass in performance and design. In true Ferrari fashion, competition versions of the 360 were also produced, both for the exclusive Ferrari Challenge series and for top-level national and international GT racing. Although the 360 followed a proud tradition of mid-engined, V8-powered, two-seat Ferraris, its all-aluminium chassis and curvaceous Pininfarina styling signalled a shift toward the future one that combined breathtaking performance with an accessible driving experience. By the end of production in 2004, over 17,000 had been built the highest production volume for any Ferrari up to that point. More than just a performance icon, the 360 introduced a new ethos: to offer Ferraris that were more accessible to a wider range of customers, with improved interior space, ergonomics and drivability. Today, it has become a favourite among both first-time Ferrari buyers and seasoned collectors, known for its relative affordability, stunning performance, reliability and distinctive character.

The story of the Saab 9-3 is full of twists and turns, from its origins before the 9-3 name even existed to its unexpected rebirth as an electric vehicle decades later. Bizarrely, the first-generation 9-3 was in essence the same car as the Saab 900 built between 1994 and 1998. Equally as bizarre, the second-generation 9-3 lived on well beyond the General Motors era, reappearing in 201314 and again from 2019 to 2022. In these later years its familiar Gen2 silhouette concealed an all-electric powertrain, now wearing the badge of new owner NEVS (National Electric Vehicle Sweden) in place of the hallowed Saab Griffin. From 1998 to 2011, the Saab 9-3 was manufactured at the Trollhattan factory in Sweden, carrying the brands distinctive character into a new era. This book charts the 9-3s evolution under General Motors stewardship, from the outgoing Saab 900 to the fundamentally similar first-generation 9-3, and on to the redesigned Gen2 model of 2002, this new model being built on GMs Epsilon platform and featuring far more GM-supplied componentry. The Gen1 9-3 came in three guises: four-door Saloon (sedan), two-door Cabriolet convertible and five-door Hatchback. Its Gen2 successor offered Saloon, Cabriolet and SportCombi estate car formats, powered by engines ranging from the 2.0-litre petrol Turbo and 1.9 TiD diesel to the 2.6-litre petrol V6 and the 1.9 TTiD twin-turbo diesel. Stunningly illustrated with over 250 images many previously unseen Saab 9-3 includes specially commissioned photography of the high-performance Viggen model, factory archive images, an interview with heroic rallycross legend Per Eklund and a Foreword by Saab insider and photojournalist Kenneth Olausson. It recounts Saabs final decade as a car manufacturer through the development of the 9-3 until its abandonment in 2011 by General Motors, and its brief rebirth as an electric vehicle under NEVS (National Electric Vehicle Sweden), which lingered intermittently until 2022.

On November 7, 1940, the third-longest suspension bridge in the world began to twist like a ribbon in a mild wind. For hours, "Galloping Gertie" undulated wildly while spectators watched in horror. Then, it tore itself apart and fell into the Puget Sound. The only casualty was a terrified dog named Tubby trapped in a car.This engineering post-mortem explains the phenomenon of aeroelastic flutter (not simple resonance, as often taught). It details the hubris of designers who prioritized slender aesthetics over structural stability and ignored the wind tunnel tests. A definitive guide to why we now build bridges with trusses instead of solid plates, written in the wreckage of bad math.

Gear production is undergoing a transformation. As demands for efficiency, flexibility, and sustainability continue to rise, digital technologies such as artificial intelligence, digital twins, and data-driven control systems are coming into sharper focus. But how far has this transformation progressed and where do conventional approaches still set the benchmark? The 2025 Aachen Forum on Gear Production (AFGP), organized by the Laboratory for Machine Tools and Production Engineering (WZL) of RWTH Aachen University in cooperation with the Research Association for Drive Technology (FVA), will address these questions with a special focus on the role of digitalization and AI in gear manufacturing. The program covers a broad spectrum: from AI-assisted gear design and visual analytics for tool wear, to digital process chains, multi-body simulations, and hybrid manufacturing strategies. Experts from industry and academia will present current developments, practical applications, and critical assessments of digital solutions in gear production. Participants will also have the opportunity to experience ongoing research firsthand during a guided tour of the WZL laboratories. An evening networking event will provide further space for in-depth technical exchange. AFGP 2025 offers a unique platform to discuss how digital and conventional technologies can complement each other and how gear production can evolve to meet the challenges of tomorrow.
