The Book of Poole
Author: Rodney Legg
Publisher:
ISBN: 9781841144115
Category : Poole (Dorset, England)
Languages : en
Pages : 160
Book Description
Poole is Dorset's biggest historic town and home to the second largest natural harbour in the world. It includes Harmworthy, the Old Town and Sandbanks, the most valuable real estate this side of Tokyo. The Second World War re-established Poole as a major transatlantic base for the flying-boat services. It also witnessed D-Day invasion bares and Royal Marine commandos of the Special Boat Squadron. The Book of Poole reveals how, even today, Georgian streets and Victorian potteries are the backdrop to a constantly changing scene, which remains home to a thriving community. All this, and much more, is detailed in this 160 page book, copiously illustrated throughout with over 200 historic photographs of the places and people who have made up the thriving community of Poole and its surrounding parish.

The Ecology of Poole Harbour
Author: V.J. May
Publisher: Elsevier
ISBN: 0080460321
Category : Science
Languages : en
Pages : 297
Book Description
Poole Harbour's unique combination of physical characteristics provide for a rich and productive ecological community recognised for its internationally significant bird populations and as a haven for the naturalisation of exotic species. But the Harbour is also exceptional in the extent to which it represents in microcosm the world-wide tensions between environment and development. The contrasts are sometimes startling: the narrow Harbour entrance separates an unspoilt natural environment of considerable importance from an urban landscape where property competes with Manhattan and Hong Kong Island in the world-wide table of real estate values. The Harbour serves as a port, fishing ground, a receiver of effluent and increasingly as a playground for the affluent. It also lies above Europe's largest on-shore oil-field.The Ecology of Poole Harbour brings together for the first time expert contributions in such a way as to provide a picture of the ecology of the Harbour system as a whole. It covers all the major habitats from reed beds and salt marshes to the extensive mudflats and unseen sub-tidal regions, while also examining in some detail a wide range of ecological phenomena and issues.* First expert overview of ecology of Poole Harbour as a whole
