Regional & national history

Paperback. Warfare in the modern era has often been described in terms of national armies fighting national wars.

Truly global in scope, it offers an alternative way of reading the military history of the last 250 years. Editor(s): Collins, B.; Arielli, Nir. Num Pages: 274 pages, biography. BIC Classification: HBG; HBJD; HBL; HBW. Category: (G) General (US: Trade). Dimension: 216 x 140. .

Paperback. Too often, scholars treat transnationalism as a conflict in which the local, regional, and national give way to globalized identity. As these varied studies of German cities show, though, the urban environment is actually a site of trans-localism that is not merely oppositional, but that adapts itself dialectically to the forces of globalization.

Focusing on Manchester, this book shows that canals were at the heart of the self-styled Cottonopolis. Not only did canals move the key commodities of Manchester's industrial revolution -coal, corn, and cotton - but canal banks also provided the key sites for the factories that made Manchester the 'shock city' of the early Victorian age.
