Through a detailed analysis of ports, shipping and trading companies whose networks spanned the world, Michael B. Miller shows how a European maritime infrastructure made modern production and consumer societies possible. He argues that the combination of overseas connections and close ties to home ports contributed to globalisation. Miller also explains how the ability to manage merchant shipping's complex logistics was central to the outcome of both world wars. He chronicles transformations in hierarchies, culture, identities and port city space, all of which produced a new and different maritime world by the end of the century"-- $c Provided by publisher. 650 0 $a International trade $x History $y 20th century. 650 0 $a Merchant marine $z Europe $x History $y 20th century. 651 0 $a Europe $x History $x History $y 20th century. 650 7 $a Commerce. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00869279 650 7 $a International trade. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00977128 650 7 $a Merchant marine. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01016936 651 7 $a Europe. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01245064 648 7 $a 1900-1999 $2 fast 655 7 $a History. $2 fast $0 http://id.worldcat.org/fast/1411628 $0 http://id.worldcat.org/fast/1411628 941 $a 1 952 $l OVUX522 $d 20180105021020.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=A6B6D1BEF1E611E78A18091E97128E48Initiate Another SILO Locator Search
