Railway Carriages - Tim Bryan

Evolving from the horse-drawn stage coaches that they soon eclipsed, railway carriages steadily grew in sophistication so that by the end of the nineteenth century the railway passenger travelled in comfortable rolling stock of a design familiar to many until the 1960s. While modern trains look different from those built more than a century ago, even today the facilities are not so dissimilar from those enjoyed by our Victorian ancestors.This book describes the development of the railway carriage from those early days to the present, highlighting some of the key developments in the history, design and construction of carriages. It also looks at the innovations that made life easier for the passenger, such as the introduction of heating, lavatories and restaurant and buffet facilities, as well as the differences in comfort between the various classes of traveller.

Iron, Stone and Steam - Tim Bryan

Isambard Kingdom Brunel: Victorian icon, engineer, artist, architect, designer and visionary, entrepreneur and celebrity. His astounding feats changed the British landscape, and this new book tells the story of his awe-inspiring achievements and innovations as a railway engineer.New to the developing world of railways in the early 1830s, Brunel soon came to rival George and Robert Stephenson, as he embarked on what he called â ˜the finest work in Englandâ ™. The construction of the Great Western Railway, arguably the most revolutionary of British railways, opened in 1841.Tim Bryan, Director of the Brunel Institute at the SS Great Britain, chronicles how, in almost thirty tumultuous years, Brunel created a rail network covering much of the South and West of England, the Midlands and Wales. The network included masterpieces like Paddington Station and the Royal Albert Bridge and still carries millions of travellers today.The book also describes how Brunelâ ™s successes were matched by â ˜monumental failuresâ ™ â “ the ill-fated atmospheric system used on the South Devon Railway, and the far-reaching implications of the broad gauge for his railways, which ultimately cost millions of pounds when abolished.Iron, Stone and Steam is also the story of the great engineerâ ™s complex character and the roles of the people who helped the creative, and sometimes dictatorial, genius create his railway. These range from the navvies who built his bridges, tunnels and lines, to contemporaries like Daniel Gooch, without whom his vision would never have been fully realised. Above all, this is the story of Brunelâ ™s vision to create a railway empire like no other.

Naučte se fotografovat AKT - Bryan Peterson

Naučte se s Bryanem Petersonem fotografovat ženský akt. Nová kniha světoznámého fotografa je oslavou krásy ženského těla a zároveň nápaditým průvodcem, jak ji zachytit a vytvořit dechberoucí fotografie. Světově uznávaný fotograf a pedagog Bryan Peterson je zpět! A jeho nová kniha, která vychází v češtině exkluzivně ve světové premiéře, se nezabývá ničím menším než ženským aktem. Protože, jak sám autor píše, „ženské tělo je diamant“, provede vás všemi taji a zákoutími umění fotografovat veškeré jeho krásy. Bylo to právě ženské tělo, které Bryana kdysi přimělo odložit paletu a štětce a vzít do ruky fotoaparát. Léta cestoval po světě, fotografoval různá témata, psal knihy a učil, ale k aktu se průběžně vracel, protože jeho fascinace tělem je skutečně hluboká a nikdy ho neopustila. Nyní svým čtenářům a široké fotografické veřejnosti předkládá knihu, ve které shromáždil nejen fascinující fotografie z celého světa, včetně Prahy, ale také své postřehy a návody, jak zachytit přesně ten okamžik, který se vám vryje do paměti. V knize Akt najdete fotografie z exteriéru i interiéru, ženu v davu lidí i osamělou na zmrzlé pláni, dozvíte se, jak důležité je zvolené pozadí, hra světla a stínu, délka expozice a v neposlední řadě i to, jak důležitou roli hraje kontrast a textura. To vše s jeho specifickou lehkostí a nadhledem. Způsob, jakým autor popisuje vznik vlastních fotografií, je sám o sobě návodem pro začínající i pokročilé fotografy. Akt je v řadě Bryanových knih přeci jen specifické dílo, nejedná se tentokrát o „školu“, na jakou jsme u něj zvyklí, nenajdete v ní fotografie „špatné“ a „dobré“, dokonce ani snímky před a po. Jen finální záběry, které vám vezmou dech svou precizností a nápaditostí. Nechte se inspirovat krásou ženského těla! O autorovi: Bryan Peterson: Odkaz Mistra Inspirace Bryan Peterson byl víc než jen fotograf – byl to pedagog s duší umělce, který dokázal zjednodušit zdánlivě složité fotografické koncepty a probudit v lidech touhu tvořit. Jeho kurzy a workshopy byly vždy nabité bezmezným nadšením a humorem, a přesně to ho odlišovalo od ostatních. Nikdy vás nezahltil technickými detaily, naopak, vedl vás k tomu, abyste nad fotografií přemýšleli a vložili do ní kus sebe. Jak sám říkal: „To, co dělá skvělou fotografii, je záměr skrytý za obrazem.“ Po více než 30 let se Bryan Peterson úspěšně věnoval komerční fotografii, pracoval pro giganty jako American Express, Kodak, UPS, Phillips a Citibank. Jeho talent byl oceněn osmkrát v soutěži Communication Arts Photography Annual, čtyřikrát časopisem Print Magazine a získal i prestižní cenu Gold Award New York Art Directors. Svými fotografiemi aktivně přispíval do časopisů Popular Photography a Outdoor Photography. Ovšem největší stopu zanechal Bryan svými knihami. Tyto bestsellery přeložené do devíti jazyků, z nichž se prodalo přes milion kusů, se staly biblí pro mnoho začínajících i pokročilých fotografů. Mezi jeho nejznámější díla patří Naučte se exponovat kreativně, Naučte se vidět kreativně, Naučte se fotografovat street fotografie a mnoho dalších, které pomáhaly čtenářům objevovat světlo, barvu, kompozici a především nalézat svůj vlastní kreativní hlas. Bryan Peterson během více než 40 let výuky vnášel do svých workshopů po celém světě jedinečný styl. Každému fotografovi zaručil kreativní a radostný zážitek, povýšil jejich vize a otevřel jim nové možnosti. Jeho odkaz bude i nadále žít v dílech těch, které inspiroval. Zanechal po sobě obrovský odkaz, který ovlivnil nespočet fotografů po celém světě. Jeho přístup k fotografii, plný inspirace a důrazu na záměr za snímkem, zůstává nadčasový a nepřestává inspirovat Pokud byste se chtěli seznámit s jeho dílem, můžete navštívit stránky jeho fotografických workshopů na www.bryanfpetersonphotoworkshops.com a prohlédnout si jeho fotografické práce na www.bryanfpeterson.com.

Making Your N Gauge Railway More Realistic - Richard Middleton

Railway modelling offers a unique opportunity for the modeller to construct and operate an authentic simulation of the real thing. When one creates a model railway, one should strive to embed the sense of purpose from the real railway into their model. Simply moving trains around aimlessly around a layout may be enjoyable, but it doesnâ ™t reflect how the real railway operates. There is much focus on absolute accuracy with regards to locomotives and rolling stock but far fewer modellers in general pay attention to prototypical accuracy and replicating authentic railway operations in miniature. Operating your layout in a realistic fashion is not only more authentic, but it can also be an enjoyable pastime in its own right. It gives purpose to the movement of every train on the layout and, if it involves co-operation between more than one operator, involves teamwork and good communication which can be immensely satisfying. Finally, realistic operation is supported by many other factors, a sense of time and setting, sensible track layout, correct placement of signals, the proper formation of trains, realistic civil engineering, and layout â ˜clutterâ ™. These all add to the overall atmosphere and setting of a real or fictional railway, tying it to a time and place, and making the whole ensemble more authentic and thus making the whole experience feel more â ˜realâ ™. This book is intended to help those with an interest in the BR Blue (TOPS) and Sectorisation eras present their layout in a realistic manner using easy-to-understand sketches and drawings, previously unpublished period photographs and source material from the era. This book will give the reader ideas to help their N Gauge model railway come to life.

George Hudson: The Railway King - Matthew Wells

George Hudson was the greatest British railway entrepreneur of the 19th century. In 1848, he controlled over 1,000 miles of railway and, when it came to railway promotion, it seemed he could do no wrong. However, in early 1849 it came to light that some of his business methods had been less than ethical and he was forced to relinquish the chairmanship of each of his companies. His fall from grace was spectacular and his detractors, of whom there were many, were quick to denounce him as a fraudster, a charlatan and a crook. Even today, when the name George Hudson is mentioned, these same insults are often levelled at him. This new biography takes a fresh look at Hudsonâ ™s extraordinary life, from his humble beginnings as a farmerâ ™s boy, to becoming Lord Mayor of York before catching the railway bug. He was MP for Sunderland between 1845 and 1859\. After his fall from grace, Hudson endured a 20-year court battle with the York and North Midland Railway (subsequently the North Eastern Railway) for outstanding debts. Hudson made many mistakes in creating his railway empire, but did he deserve all the vitriol that still accompanies his reputation? In seeking to answer this question, Matthew Wells looks at the evidence, including what was said about Hudson during his lifetime and what Hudson himself had to say about the actions he took.

The North Eastern Railway - Cecil Allen

With the 200th anniversary of the opening of the Stockton Darlington Railway being celebrated in 2025, an event rightly marking the dawn of the railway age which so transformed both Britain and the whole world, our modest contribution is to reissue this long out of print history of the North Eastern Railway written by one of the doyens of railway literature in the last century, Cecil J. Allen. The North Eastern Railway had one of the most fascinating and complex histories of all of the British railway companies. As evidence of this, at its formation in 1854, the NER absorbed no fewer than 53 public and 21 private companies. Its roots date back to the earliest days of the development of the wagonways, imperative to carry coals from the Durham and Northumberland mines to the sea. Huge personalities like George Stephenson, Edward and Joseph Pease and George Hudson are involved in its story as is the struggle to build the through trunk route linking the north and south which was to become the East Coast Main Line. Later, as the nineteenth century progressed, the NER s preoccupation was to protect its lucrative territories from the incursion of others, which it did with considerable success. Every aspect of the NER s history is considered in this concise but comprehensive volume from the engineering works required to carry its lines through the rugged terrain which it served, to the development of its locomotives and services and later its early efforts to electrify part of its network. This is an enthralling story, thoroughly researched and well written which will be appeal to all those interested in the history of Britain s railways.

The Early History of Railway Tunnels - Hubert Pragnell

To the early railway traveller, the prospect of travelling to places in hours rather than days hitherto was an inviting prospect, however a journey was not without its fears as well as excitement. To some, the prospect of travelling through a tunnel without carriage lighting, with smoke permeating the compartment and the confined noise was a horror of the new age. What might happen if we broke down or crashed into another train in the darkness? To others it was exciting, with the light from the footplate flickering against the tunnel walls or spotting the occasional glimpses of light from a ventilation shaft. To the directors of early railway companies, planning a route was governed by expense and the most direct way. Avoiding hills could add miles but tunnelling through them could involve vast expense as the Great Western Railway found at Box and the London and Birmingham at Kilsby. Creating a cutting as an alternative was also costly not only in labour and time, but also in compensation for landowners, who opposed railways on visual and social grounds having seen their land divided by canals. Construction involved millions of bricks or blocks of stone for sufficiently thick walls to withstand collapse. However, the entrance barely seen from the carriage window might be an impressive Italianate arch as at Primrose Hill, or a castellated portal worthy of the Middle Ages as at Bramhope. This book sets out to tell the story of tunnelling in Britain up to about 1870, when it was a question of burrowing through earth and rock with spade and explosive powder, with the constant danger of collapse or flooding leading to injury and death. It uses contemporary accounts, from the dangers of railway travel by Dickens to the excitement of being drawn through the Liverpool Wapping Tunnel by the young composer Mendelssoln. It includes descriptions from early railway company guide books, newspapers and diaries. It also includes numerous photographs and coloured architectural elevations from railway archives.

Blood of the Isles - Bryan Sykes

Bryan Sykes, the world s first genetic archaeologist, takes us on a journey around the family tree of Britain and Ireland, to reveal how our tribal history still colours the country today.In 54BC Julius Caesar launched the first Roman invasion of Britain. His was the first detailed account of the Celtic tribes that inhabited the Isles. But where had they come from and how long had they been there? When the Romans eventually left five hundred years later, they were succeeded by invasions of Anglo-Saxons, Vikings and Normans. Did these successive invasions obliterate the genetic legacy of the Celts, or have very little effect?After two decades tracing the genetic origins of peoples from all over the world, Bryan Sykes has now turned the spotlight on his own back yard. In a major research programme, the first of its kind, he set out to test the DNA of over 10,000 volunteers from across Britain and Ireland with the specific aim of answering this very question: what is our modern genetic make-up and what does it tell us of our tribal past? Are the modern people of the Isles a delicious genetic cocktail? Or did the invaders keep mostly to themselves forming separate genetic layers within the Isles? As his findings came in, Bryan Sykes discovered that the genetic evidence revealed often very different stories to the conventional accounts coming from history and archaeology. Blood of the Isles reveals the nature of our genetic make-up as never before and what this says about our attitudes to ourselves, each other, and to our past. It is a gripping story that will fascinate and surprise with its conclusions.

Greatest British Railway Journeys - Michael Portillo

It is now over a decade since the much-loved Great British Railway Journeys series set off on its incredible run discovering the cultural, social and engineering landscape of the United Kingdom through the prism of George Bradshaw s Handbook to rail travel. Veteran politician and ex cabinet minister Michael Portillo has since presented eleven seasons of this ever-popular show on BBC Two, covering every part of the existing train network in Britain, as well as others that were closed as a result of the Beeching Report in 1963. Across a decade of these journeys, Portillo has celebrated how every corner of England, Scotland, Wales and Northern Ireland was opened up by the railway line as a result of the Industrial Revolution, thus giving fans a unique insight into our shared past of train travel since the Victorian era. With the anniversary, this new collection will celebrate Michael s top fifty journeys from the hundreds he has covered, adding more insight and analysis to some of the greatest railway lines, stations, bridges, viaducts and tunnels the Victorians built to create the world we now live in. From Paddington Station to the Clifton Suspension Bridge; the Southend Pier line to the milk wagons departing from Blake Hall Station. An unrivalled narrative to be treasured. Greatest British Railway Journeys is both a celebratory and charming ride through our country s beloved history - all from the unique position of a train seat.

The Coming of the Railway - David Gwyn

The first global history of the epic early days of the iron railway  Railways, in simple wooden or stone form, have existed since prehistory. But from the 1750s onward the introduction of iron rails led to a dramatic technological evolution⠔one that would truly change the world.  In this rich new history, David Gwyn tells the neglected story of the early iron railway from a global perspective. Driven by a combination of ruthless enterprise, brilliant experimenters, and international cooperation, railway construction began to expand across the world with astonishing rapidity. From Britain to Australia, Russia to America, railways would bind together cities, nations, and entire continents. Rail was a tool of industry and empire as well as, eventually, passenger transport, and developments in technology occurred at breakneck speed⠔even if the first locomotive in America could muster only 6 mph.  The Coming of the Railway explores these fascinating developments, documenting the early railway⠙s outsize social, political, and economic impact⠔carving out the shape of the global economy as we know it today.

The Light Railway - John Scott-Morgan

The light Railways Act 1896 marked the final phase in the development of the traditional railway in Britain, being designed to open up rural areas of Britain that had been bypassed by the larger railway companies. The promoting and construction of light railways allowed many parts of Britain and Ireland, to have an outlet to the outside world and major cities, which previously they had not enjoyed. The Light Railway is not designed to be a definitive history, but a pictorial tribute to the brave attempt to develop a rural network of lines to serve some of the areas of the British Isles and Ireland that had sadly been neglected by the large main line companies throughout the initial and later railway development period from 1825 to 1896. This volume looks at the railways themselves, motive power and infrastructure that made up these small but important lines, promoted by our Victorian and Edwardian ancestors.

The Railway - Hamid Ismailov

Set mainly in Uzbekistan between 1900 and 1980, The Railway introduces to us the inhabitants of the small town of Gilas on the ancient Silk Route. Among those whose stories we hear are Mefody-Jurisprudence, the town s alcoholic intellectual; Father Ioann, a Russian priest; Kara-Musayev the Younger, the chief of police; and Umarali-Moneybags, the old moneylender. Their colourful lives offer a unique and comic picture of a little-known land populated by outgoing Mullahs, incoming Bolsheviks, and a plethora of Uzbeks, Russians, Persians, Jews, Koreans, Tatars and Gypsies. At the heart of both the town and the novel stands the railway station - a source of income and influence, and a connection to the greater world beyond the town. Rich and picaresque, The Railway chronicles the dramatic changes felt throughout Central Asia in the early twentieth century.

Naučte se používat barvu kreativně - Bryan Peterson

Svět je barevný. Je to tak samozřejmé, že často zapomeneme s barvami při fotografování pracovat. Bryan Peterson vám ukáže jak na to. Nestačí mít barevné fotografie, které věrně zachycují barevný svět kolem nás. Je potřeba naučit se barvy při fotografování používat. Fotograf by měl vědět, jak barvy fungují, jak je vnímáme a jak nás ovlivňují. Fotograf by měl vědět, které barvy spolu vzájemně ladí, které se zvýrazňují a vyčleňují svým kontrastem, které spolupůsobí a které mohou naopak soupeřit o divákovu pozornost. Bryan Peterson je známý zejména svými barevnými kompozicemi a v této své zatím poslední knize se právě barvám plně věnuje. Jestliže kniha českého profesionálního fotografa Jana Pohribného Kreativní barva ve fotografii je velmi rozsáhlým, komlexním, odborným a inspirativním pojednáním o barvách pro pokročilé fotografy, pak kniha Bryana Petersona je stravitelná a srozumitelná i pro začínající fotografické nadšence. Kniha obsahuje kapitolku věnovanou základům teorie barev, ale její hlavní část je plná ukázkových příkladů typu před a po a postupů krok za krokem, na nichž oba autoři ukazují, jak jednoduše se znalostí působení barev změnit běžný snímek na zajímavou a působivou fotografii. Autoři se vedle práce s barvou při kompozičním řešení fotografií zabývají i problémy s expozicí: řada fotografů, zejména těch, kteří fotografují květiny a přírodu, se již setkala s problémem, jak nastavit expozici pro správné barevné a tonální podání snímků s jednou výrazně převládající barvou, kdy je potřeba výsledky měření fotoaparátu individuálně upravovat. Kniha Naučte se používat barvu kreativně organicky navazuje na předchozí knihy Bryana Petersona a stává se vítaným doplněním knihoven všech hobby fotografů a zejména těch, kteří si oblíbili styl fotografování i psaní tohoto autora řady světových bestsellerů.

Naučte se fotografovat dobře - Bryan Peterson - Bryan Peterson

Pro velký zájem čtenářů vydáváme v roce 2023 nový, již 8. dotisk této populární fotografické knihy. Bryan Peterson, autor bestsellerů o (digitální) fotografii, shrnul své předchozí knihy do jediné praktické příručky, která tak obsahuje nejlepší části z publikací (všechny vyšly v češtině ve vydavatelství Zoner Press): Naučte se vidět kreativně (4. vydání, zcela rozebráno), Naučte se exponovat kreativně (4. vydání), Naučte se fotografovat digitálně (2. vydání, zcela rozebráno), Portrét – naučte se fotografovat kreativně (3. vydání, zcela rozebráno), Naučte se používat expoziční čas kreativně (2. vydání, zcela rozebráno) a Naučte se fotografovat detail kreativně (vydáno 2010, zcela rozebráno). Jak je z předchozího výčtu vidět, většinu publikací již není možné sehnat jinak než alespoň v tomto sborníku. Publikace obsahuje všechny praktické rady a doporučení, které potřebuje začínající až středně pokročilý fotograf znát. Od základních informací o digitální fotografii přes vysvětlení, jaké nastavení expozice volit pro získání působivých snímků, až po rady, jak fotografovat scény s pohybem. V samostatných kapitolách předvádí autor fotografování lidí, portrétů, makra a detailu, krajiny a přírody. Závěr publikace je věnován několika zajímavým efektům, kterými mohou své fotografie oživit ti, kteří rádi zkoušejí netradiční postupy. Mezi nesporné výhody knih Bryana Petersona patří způsob jeho vysvětlování, který vychází z dlouhodobé fotografické praxe a zkušeností školitele uznávaného po celém světě. Výklad nevyžaduje žádné předchozí znalosti, knihu mohou dobře použít i naprostí začátečníci, ale díky množství praktických rad a podrobně popsaným ukázkám ji využijí i zkušení fotografové.

Just Mercy - Bryan Stevenson

A #1 New York Times bestseller, this is a powerful, true story about the potential for mercy to redeem us, and a clarion call to fix America s broken justice system, as seen in the HBO documentary True Justice. The US has the highest rate of incarceration in the world. One in every 15 people born there today is expected to goto prison. For black men this figure rises to one in 3. And Death Row is disproportionately black, too. Bryan Stevenson grew up poor in the racially segregated South. His innate sense of justice made him a brilliant young lawyer, and one of his first defendants was Walter McMillian, a black man sentenced to die for the murder of a white woman - a crime he insisted he didn t commit. The case drew Bryan into a tangle of conspiracy, political machination, startling racialinequality, and legal brinkmanship - and transformed his understanding of mercy and justice forever. At once an unforgettable account of an idealistic lawyer s coming of age and a moving portrait of the lives of those he hasdefended, Just Mercy is an inspiring argument for compassion in the pursuit of justice.

Bryan Organ - Tristram Hunt, Mullins Charlotte, Roy Strong, Jon Snow, Chris Stephens

Published to mark the artist s 90th birthday, this is the first and only book to provide an overview of Bryan Organ, one of the world s great portrait painters. This book tells the story of Bryan Organ, whose works have been commissioned by the National Portrait Gallery more than any other 20th-century painter. It is itself a portrait, one that draws on his beginnings on the school cricket pitch and at art college as well as his time sketching others in recording studios, on the polo field and at the Elysée Palace. It tells the stories of his most important paintings, his friendship with Graham Sutherland, and his endless experimentation with movement, space and form. For the first time, it offers a contextual overview of his paintings, drawings, prints and sketches from the 1950s to today. Whether painting Prince Charles, Sir Harold Macmillan, Elton John, President Mitterrand or pigeon fanciers Mr and Mrs Sharples, Organ⠙s strategy is to find a point of contact with his sitters and get to know them. As this beautiful book illustrates, his acute powers of observation, his facility as a draughtsman and meticulous painting technique enable him to create a psychological likeness that feels like a real human encounter. Despite his success, Organ has always shunned the limelight. When his controversial 1970 portrait of Princess Margaret hit the front pages, he found it difficult to cope with the uproar and retreated to France. Some ten years later, his portrait of Princess Diana was slashed by an anti-monarchist, and Organ decided that enough was enough. Since then, he has continued to work quietly, but refuses to be involved in any exhibitions and avoids all press coverage. Organ provided unprecedented access to his entire archive for this book, the only overview of his illustrious career.

Lyrics - Ferry Bryan

Celebrate the 50th anniversary of Roxy Music s iconic first album with this collection of Bryan Ferry s evocative lyrics of aspiration and romantic longing, introduced by the author. Bryan Ferry s work as a singer and songwriter, both as a solo artist and with Roxy Music, is legendary. Lyrics collects the words written for music across seventeen albums, from the first iconic Roxy album of 1972 via the masterpiece of Avalon to 2014 s reflective Avonmore, introduced by the author, and with an insightful essay by James Truman. All the classic Roxy anthems are here - Virginia Plain , Do the Strand , Love is the Drug - songs in which the real and the make-believe blend in a kaleidoscopic mix, shot through with cinematic allure. Also included are the evocative lyrics of romantic longing and lost illusions for which Ferry is rightly revered: Slave to Love , Mother of Pearl , More Than This . As he writes in his preface, The low points in life so often produce the most keenly felt and best-loved songs. And, it might be added, some of the best poetry.
