Hardcover. Zustand: Near Fine. Zustand des Schutzumschlags: Near Fine. 1st Edition. This copy is very close to new and is signed on the title page by Ian Farquhar. The origins of Tyser & Company, tracing its development up to 1914. From there, it follows the evolution of the Commonwealth & Dominion Line, which later became the Port Line, and continues through to its closure in 1991. It doesn't just focus on one company—it weaves in the histories of several others that were closely linked, including MANZ Line, Atlas Line, Compass Line, Crusader Shipping Company, and Associated Container Transport (Australia) Ltd. These companies played key roles in trade routes between New Zealand, Australia, South Africa, and the UK. One of the book's strengths is its exploration of the liner conference system—a kind of shipping cartel that governed trade routes and pricing. It explains how these conferences shaped the industry, from the early days of refrigerated cargo in the 1880s to their eventual dismantling by the European Commission in 2006. The narrative doesn't shy away from the politics and commercial tensions that defined these systems. Signed by Author(s).…
