Britain's Transition from Rail to Road-Based Food Distribution, 1919-1975 Thomas James Spain MA
‘Food Miles’: Britain’s Transition from Rail to Road-based Food Distribution, 1919-1975 Thomas James Spain MA Doctor of Philosophy University of York Railway Studies September 2016 Abstract Britain’s railways were essential for the development of the British economy throughout the nineteenth century; however, by 1919 their seemingly unassailable position as goods carriers was about to be eroded by the lorry. The railway strike of September 1919 had presented traders with an opportunity to observe the capabilities of road haulage, but there is no study which focuses on the process of modal shift in goods distribution from the trader’s perspective. This thesis therefore marks an important departure from the existing literature by placing goods transport into its working context. The importance of food as an everyday essential commodity adds a further dimension to the status of goods transport within Britain’s supply chain, particularly when the fragility of food products means that minimising the impact of distance, time and spoilage before consumption is vital in ensuring effective and practical logistical solutions. These are considered in a series of four case studies on specific food commodities and retail distribution, which also hypothesise that the modal shift from rail to road reflected the changing character of transport demand between 1919 and 1975. Consequently, this thesis explores the notion that the centre of governance over the supply chain transferred between food producers, manufacturers, government and chain retailer, thereby driving changes in transport technology and practice. This thesis uses archival material to provide a qualitative study into the food industry’s relationship with transport where the case studies incorporate supply chain analyses to permit an exploration of how changes in structure might have influenced the modal shift from rail to road distribution. -

THE CONSCRIPTION CONTROVERSY IN GREAT BRITAIN 0 0 R.J.Q. ADAMS & PHILIP P POIRIER Despite the efforts of Lord Roberts's National Service League-and the covert support of the army-mandatory service was considered an extremist's nostrum in the years before August 1914. With the unpre cedented manpower demands of the First World War, a bitter conflict erupted between voluntarists and conscriptionists among British statesmen-settled only after the collapse of voluntary recruiting and the passage of the National Service Acts in 1916. For the remainder of the conflict Britain's leaders struggled with the question of how best to use these broad new powers both to send enough men to the trenches and to keep enough back to make munitions and necessary consumer goods. By 1918 Britain stared into the bottom of the manpower barrel. For a note on the authors, please see the back flap THE CONSCRIPTION CONTROVERSY IN GREAT BRITAIN, 1900-18 Also by R. J. Q.

I Attitudes Towards International Affairs Among the Students And
Attitudes Towards International Affairs Among the Students and Staff of the University of Edinburgh 1914-1939 Niall T Stuart PhD The University of Edinburgh 2007 i Acknowledgements Many thanks to my supervisors, Dr Paul Addison and Professor Robert Anderson, the City of Edinburgh Archivist Mr Richard Hunter for extensive information about his grandfather Mr David Mackenzie, staff at the various libraries and archives used (especially the University of Edinburgh Main Library Special Collections), and family and friends for all their support and encouragement. ii Thesis Abstract This thesis examines attitudes toward international affairs held by students and staff at the University of Edinburgh between 1914 and 1939, particularly those relating to the issues of war and peace. Specific ideological areas to be looked at include religious influences, nationalism and imperialism, racial concepts, health, fitness and eugenics, and Marxism. Primary sources made use of throughout include the private papers and publications of officials and teaching staff at the university, newspaper letters and reports, University Court, Senatus, Faculty and other committee papers and minutes, official University publications and course text books, and student publications, society minutes and debating records. In the main body of the thesis the relevant positions of the student body and University official and staff are looked at separately and a generally chronological approach followed, with the overall period divided up into World War One, the 1920s, and the 1930s respectively. The conclusion seeks to evaluate the reasons why both students and staff offered up a generally vigorous support for Britain’s war efforts in both 1914 and 1939, this in spite of the widespread popularity of pacifistic ideas throughout the period covered. -
