Messina Province in a series of handy size road maps from Litografia Artistica Cartografica (LAC) with more minor local roads & tracks than can be found on most regional maps. The series is gradually being changed to a new style of digitally derived cartography, so presentation of adjoining titles may vary. All the maps have hill shading to represent the general relief with spot heights for selected peaks, & show a few more local roads & rough tracks than the other road map series. Intermediate road distances are indicated. Regional, provincial & communal borders are marked, & railways, funiculars, airports, sea ferry links & campsites are shown. The legend is in Italian only. The new, digitally produced editions are indexed & have enhanced, more finely drawn cartography: the hill-shading is less bold, motorway service areas are marked, natural parks are highlighted & an expanded range of symbols indicates various landmarks & sites, e.g. antiquities, churches, etc. Two styles of the new cartography are produced, differing only in the colour of the predominant background shading: grey or yellow/green. Some of the new editions include geographical coordinates for the map corners. The index of localities is on the reverse. This title is still produced in the traditional cartographic style. ...

Inexplicably out of print since the late 1940s, Messing About in Boats is one of the most charming & evocative accounts of work & leisure afloat in the years either side of the Great War. John Muir describes with humanity & humour the perils of boat acquisition & ownership by the impecunious, & the somewhat mixed talents of the Paid H&. But his account is more than balanced by the interest & pleasure he took in working & sailing in English waters, from the North Sea to the Bristol Channel, in an age long before the marina, GPS & radio. Muir provides two valuable first-hand accounts of work afloat under steam & sail before the War, while he was on half-paid leave between assignments in the Royal Navy: In the North Sea `boxing` fleet of trawlers which remained on station for weeks on end, where he served in his medical capacity, & later in the Bristol Channel Pilot service, where he crewed on a cutter, delivering the pilot to incoming ships in all weathers. His unfavourable views of the qualities of the Bristol Channel Pilot Cutter as a yacht may surprise its aficionados today, but he relented sufficiently to own two of them, Maud & Freda, which feature in the book. ...
