Inland Waterways of Ireland
Of all the countries in Europe, Ireland particularly lends itself to exploration by water. It is an island of manageable size with deep-sea loughs cutting far inland, spectacular inland loughs surrounded by mountains and majestic rivers connected by man-made canals. In a boat of suitable dimensions you can cross the country from Dublin on the soft east coast to Limerick and the Atlantic, or from Waterford in the southeast to Belleek in the northwest, without ever setting to sea. These unrivalled waterways also offer superb walking and cycling access, and the gentle pace of these modes of travel really allows you to get to know Ireland and her people.

Generation and Application of High Power Microwaves
Written at the graduate level, Generation and Application of High Power Microwaves discusses the basic physics of the generation of microwave and radiofrequency waves in the megawatt power range and the application of these ideas to a range of devices such as klystrons, gyrotrons, and free electron lasers. The book also contains chapters covering the transmission of the power through waveguides and the problems associated with mode conversion in transmission lines. The main application area covered is the heating and current drive in tokamaks and other devices for research into controlled nuclear fusion. Other applications of high power microwave technology are not neglected, and among those discussed are multiple charged ion and soft x-ray sources, electron spin resonance spectroscopy, advanced materials processing, millimeter wave radar, and supercolliders.

Norfolk, The Wash and Humber
Successor to Henry Irving's long-established guide to the nooks and crannies of this fascinating corner of the east coast of England, this new title has extended coverage under the authorship of retired harbourmaster and local cruising sailor Peter Harvey. Some choose to bypass this beautiful section of coast and its extraordinary natural habitats, but this cruising guide gives inspiration to anyone who wishes to explore the many shallow creeks and deeper historic harbours of Norfolk, Lincolnshire and the Humber. With thoroughly updated text and plans and new photographs throughout, The Wash and Humber remains an essential companion to this interesting and rewarding section of our coastline.
Fenland Waterways
This guide to the Middle Level waterways that lie between the River Great Ouse and River Nene, including the main link route via March and several other alternatives, gives all the information needed for anyone planning to navigate the area. Shaped by human ingenuity and home to a rich variety of nature, the serene and stunning landscapes of the Fenland waterways are more remote than most of the rest of the country’s network of navigable inland waters. In this lies their beauty and much of their attraction. However, they also have sufficient access to facilities. Readers will find a wealth of information about moorings, facilities and services, as well as features of interest to canoeists,...
