Beschreibung

Walkable Streets explores the vital role of pedestrian-friendly infrastructure in creating thriving urban communities. It examines how prioritizing walkability can lead to economic revitalization, enhanced social interaction, and significant environmental benefits. The book highlights that investing in pedestrian infrastructure can boost property values and foster a stronger sense of community. Moreover, walkable streets encourage physical activity, reduce social isolation, and promote inclusivity for all residents, regardless of age or ability.

 
The book approaches the topic by first introducing the core concepts of walkability before delving into the economic, social, and environmental advantages. Drawing upon urban planning studies, economic analyses, and sociological research, Walkable Streets presents a compelling case for re-evaluating urban design priorities. It progresses by offering practical strategies and policy recommendations for creating more walkable streets, acknowledging the challenges and opportunities in implementation, while emphasizing the long-term benefits of pedestrian-focused design.

To The Call of Bugles - A...

Bill Openshaw

This highly readable illustrated biography on the Percy Tenantry Volunteers has been written with exclusive access to the current Duke of Northumberland's treasure trove of archive records. This book is for anyone interested in military history, especially Revolutionary and the Napoleonic war period, and for those looking at the local history of Northumberland, and especially Alnwick Castle.
The history of Britain's conflict with France between 1793 and 1815 is well documented. Nevertheless, one aspect that has scant coverage, is that of the role of Volunteers.  In 1798, afraid of impending invasion by France's all-conquering armies the British desperately needed to defend their shores. To The Call of Bugles reveals, for the first time, how among those who stood forward in Home Guard style military bodies, there was no finer example than that of the valiant Percy Tenantry Volunteers, created by the 2nd Duke of Northumberland, General Hugh Percy. This amateur body of men, 1,500 strong, consisting of cavalry, artillery and riflemen, was put together, trained, armed, dressed and operated by General Hugh Percy. This book provides stories from the original volunteers, an in-depth understanding of how such a corps was organised and reveals how they were fashioned into an elite and innovative fighting force.

When Washington Burned - The...

Robert P. Watson

Perhaps no other single day in United States history was as threatening to the survival of the nation as August 24, 1814, when British forces captured Washington, DC. This unique moment might have significantly altered the nation's path forward, but the event and the reasons why it happened are little remembered by most Americans. 
 
 
 
When Washington Burned narrates and examines the British campaign and American missteps that led to the fall of Washington during the War of 1812. Watson analyzes the actions of key figures on both sides, such as President James Madison and General William Winder on the United States side and Rear Admiral George Cockburn and Major General Robert Ross on the British side. He pinpoints the reasons the campaign was such a disaster for the United States but also tells the redeeming stories of the courageous young clerks and the bold first lady, Dolley Madison, who risked their lives to save priceless artifacts and documents from the flames, including the Constitution. The British invasion was repulsed over the coming weeks and months, and the United States ultimately emerged stronger. 
 
 
 
General listeners interested in the history of Washington, United States history, and military history will be fascinated by this book.
