Kurzbeschreibung des Verlags

The Merchant Shipping Act, 1854, and the Merchant Shipping Repeal Act, 1854 is a legal text written by William Shee in 1854. The book is a comprehensive guide to the two acts of parliament which were passed in the same year, and which had a significant impact on the shipping industry in the United Kingdom.The Merchant Shipping Act, 1854 was a major piece of legislation which established a framework of regulations for the safety and welfare of seafarers, as well as the maintenance and operation of ships. The act covered a wide range of topics, including the certification of seafarers, the registration of ships, and the investigation of marine accidents.The Merchant Shipping Repeal Act, 1854, on the other hand, was a much shorter piece of legislation which repealed several older acts of parliament which were deemed to be outdated or no longer relevant.Together, these two acts represented a major overhaul of the legal framework governing the shipping industry in the UK, and had a lasting impact on the way in which ships were operated and maintained. William Shee's book provides a detailed analysis of the acts, including their background, purpose, and key provisions. It is an invaluable resource for anyone interested in the history of maritime law, or the development of the shipping industry in the UK.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
