  • RETROSPECTIVE BOOK REVIEWS by Esley Hamilton, NAOP Board Trustee
    Field Notes - Spring 2016 Issue RETROSPECTIVE BOOK REVIEWS By Esley Hamilton, NAOP Board Trustee We have been reviewing new books about the Olmsteds and the art of landscape architecture for so long that the book section of our website is beginning to resemble a bibliography. To make this resource more useful for researchers and interested readers, we’re beginning a series of articles about older publications that remain useful and enjoyable. We hope to focus on the landmarks of the Olmsted literature that appeared before the creation of our website as well as shorter writings that were not intended to be scholarly works or best sellers but that add to our understanding of Olmsted projects and themes. THE OLMSTEDS AND THE VANDERBILTS The Vanderbilts and the Gilded Age: Architectural Aspirations 1879-1901. by John Foreman and Robbe Pierce Stimson, Introduction by Louis Auchincloss. New York: St. Martin’s Press, 1991, 341 pages. At his death, William Henry Vanderbilt (1821-1885) was the richest man in America. In the last eight years of his life, he had more than doubled the fortune he had inherited from his father, Commodore Cornelius Vanderbilt (1794-1877), who had created an empire from shipping and then done the same thing with the New York Central Railroad. William Henry left the bulk of his estate to his two eldest sons, but each of his two other sons and four daughters received five million dollars in cash and another five million in trust. This money supported a Vanderbilt building boom that remains unrivaled, including palaces along Fifth Avenue in New York, aristocratic complexes in the surrounding countryside, and palatial “cottages” at the fashionable country resorts.

CHICAGO AND NEW YORK BELFOBD, CLARKE & COMPANY Publishers 1/ COPYKIGHT, 1886, BY BELFORD, CLAEKE & COMPANY. TROWS PRINTING AND BOOKBINDING COMPANY, NEW YORK. PREFACE This is a history of the Yanderbilt family, with a record of their vicissitudes, and a chronicle of the method by which their wealth has been acquired. It is confidently put forth as a work which should fall into the hands of boys and young men—of all who aspire to become Cap- tains of Industry or leaders of their fellows in the sharp and wholesome competitions of life. In preparing these pages, the author has had an am- bition, not merely to give a biographical picture of sire, son, and grandsons and descendants, but to consider their relation to society, to measure the significance and the influence of their fortune, to ascertain where their money came from, to inquire whether others are poorer because they are rich, whether they are hindering or promoting civilization, whether they and such as they are impediments to the welfare of the human i-ace.

    Broadcasting Authority of lreland Review of the Operation, Effectiveness and lmpact of the Archiving Scheme Report to the Minister for Communications, Glimate Action and Environment August 2017 Report on Archiving Scheme August 2017 1. lntroduction Section 158 of the Broadcasting Act 2009 ("the Act") provides that the Broadcasting Authority of lreland ("the BAl") shall review the operation, effectiveness and impact of a Broadcasting (Funding) Scheme not later than 3 years from the passing of the Act (July 2009), and every three years thereafter, and make a written report to the Minister for Communications Energy and Natural Resources ("the Minister") on the review. The Archiving Scheme ("the Scheme") was established in May 2012furlher to Section 15a (1)(e) of the Act. As the Scheme did not exist at the time of the establishment of the Act, the question of a review in accordance with section 158 (1) did not arise at that time. The Scheme seeks to contribute to the preservation of lreland's broadcasting heritage and a record of lrish culture, heritage and experience by supporting the development of an archiving culture in the lrish broadcasting sector. The Scheme was initially approved until the end of December 2014 and two rounds were run during this period. Following consultation with the Department of Communications, Energy and Natural Resources, the Scheme was granted an extension by the Minister until the 30th April 2016 and one further round was run during this period. ln the last quarter of 2016, the BAI undertook a review of the Scheme, as required under Section 158 of the Act and in accordance with the rules of the Scheme.

Since its formation in 2003, Ofcom has not conducted any dedicated consultation on the options to develop local TV, despite recognising the risk of market failure in local broadcasting. During the passage of the Communications Act the Labour Government explicitly stated that Ofcom would be required to evaluate local TV as one of its core duties to citizens.
