Defined by their intersection of maritime and urban space, port towns were sites of complex cultural exchanges. This book, the product of international scholarship, offers innovative and challenging perspectives on the cultural histories of ports, ranging from eighteenth-century Africa to twentieth-century Australasia and Europe. The essays in this important collection explore two key themes; the nature and character of 'sailortown' culture and port-town life, and the representations of port towns that were forged both within and beyond urban-maritime communities. The book's exploration of port town identities and cultures, and its use of a rich array of methodological approaches and cultural artefacts, will make it of great interest to both urban and maritime historians. It also represents a major contribution to the emerging, interdisciplinary field of coastal studies. 000755207 588__ $$aOnline resource; title from PDF title page (viewed May 19, 2016). 000755207 650_0 $$aWaterfronts$$xHistory. 000755207 650_0 $$aCity planning$$xHistory. 000755207 650_0 $$aCultural landscapes$$xHistory. 000755207 7001_ $$aBeaven, Brad,$$eeditor. 000755207 7001_ $$aBell, Karl,$$eeditor. 000755207 7001_ $$aJames, Robert,$$eeditor. 000755207 852__ $$bebk 000755207 85640 $$3SpringerLink$$uhttps://univsouthin.idm.oclc.org/login?url=http://link.springer.com/10.1057/978-1-137-48316-4$$zOnline Access$$91397441.1 000755207 909CO $$ooai:library.usi.edu:755207$$pGLOBAL_SET 000755207 980__ $$aEBOOK 000755207 980__ $$aBIB 000755207 982__ $$aEbook 000755207 983__ $$aOnline 000755207 994__ $$a92$$bISE
