Chapters: Rhondda. Source: Wikipedia. Pages: 69. Not illustrated. Free updates online. Purchase includes a free trial membership in the publisher's book club where you can select from more than a million books without charge. Excerpt: Geography of the Isle of Man -Satellite imageArea:total: 572 km²land: 572 km²water: 0 km² This makes it: The Isle of Man has a coastline of 160 km, and claims 12 nm of territorial waters, but only holds exclusive fishing rights in the first 3 miles.. Raad ny Foillan long distance footpath runs 95 miles around the Manx coast. The Isle of Man enjoys a temperate climate, with cool summers and mild winters. Average rainfall is high compared to the majority of the British Isles, due to its location to the western side of Great Britain and sufficient distance from Ireland for moisture to be accumulated by the prevailing south-westerly winds. Average rainfall is highest at Snaefell, where it is around 1,900 mm (74.8 in) a year. At lower levels it can fall to around 800 mm (31.5 in) a year. Temperatures remain fairly cool, with the recorded maximum being 28.9 °C (84.0 °F) at Ronaldsway. The Isle of Man is known for its overcast skies and low levels of sunshine. Some of the island's mountainous terrain as viewed from Snaefell, the island's highest peak.The island's terrain is varied. There are two mountainous areas divided by a central valley which runs between Douglas and Peel. The highest point in the Isle of Man, Snaefell, is in the northern area and reaches 621m. The northern end of the island is a flat plain, consisting of glacial tills and marine sediments. To the south the island is more hilly, with distinct valleys. There is no land below sea level. There are few severe natural hazards, the most common being high winds, rough seas and dense fog. In recent years there has been a marked increase in the frequency of high winds, heavy rains, summer droughts and flooding both from heavy rain and fro...More: http://booksllc.net/?id=14764 ...

Product Description
Their names bespeak a rich and varied past, belying their paucity of notice by historians. From the Norse Hjaltland comes the modern Shetland: islands nominally Scottish, steeped in Nordic culture, closer to the Arctic Circle than to London. Important Neolithic sites at Skara Brae and Maes Howe in the Orkneys wallow in anonymity next to Stonehenge. Holy Iona, island center of CelticChristianity; the Isle of Man, former seat of rule over the Irish Sea; Anglesey and Islay, homes of forgotten Medieval courts at Aberffraw and Loch Finlaggan—these are just a few of the more than 6,000 islands that form the archipelago known as the British Isles. Inhabited for millennia and today home to half a million people, the offshore British Isles demonstrate that Great Britain is far more than just England, Scotland, Ireland and Wales. This history of Britain’s other islands sheds light on a fundamental but neglected aspect of the past. Focusing on the eight islands or chains that have long supported substantial populations, it tells the stories of Shetland, Orkney, the Hebrides, Anglesey, the Channel Islands, the Scilly Isles, and the Isles of Man and Wight. From their earliest Neolithic settlement, to Roman, Norse and Norman occupation, to the struggle to maintain their unique identities in today’s world, the lives of these islands are a fascinating overlooked slice of European history. A chapter is devoted to each, and maps of the islands are included. Appendices provide geographical descriptions, population statistics, political and economic profiles. A select bibliography and index are included. ... Read more

5-0 out of 5 stars Great
I ordered this book for a class I'm taking because the college book store was out of used books.This book was actually in much better condition than I thought it would be and it arrived much sooner than expected.

5-0 out of 5 stars Great Resource
This was one of the few books I could find on the Orkneys, and it has been very informative and interesting so far. Highly recommended for anyone interested in another facet of British culture.

5-0 out of 5 stars The Other British Isles
Excellent summary of the overlooked history of the main off-shore islands. Fascinating details of an almost parallel universe to the mainland. Their geography often placed them in the way of power struggles taking place beyond their shores. Each island has its own peculiarities with shifting economies based on far-flung trading partners and changing demands. The book zips along, covering a lot of ground but has a terrific index for cross referencing place names and keeping track of the colorful characters that peopled the isles up to and including recent times. ...

High Quality Content by WIKIPEDIA articles! Raad ny Foillan (English: The Way of the Gull) is a long distance footpath in the Isle of Man. The Raad ny Foillan starts and finishes at the Millennium Bridge over Douglas Harbour. The circular path, which is 95 miles in length, is way marked around the Manx coast on signs showing a gull on a blue background. The walk was created to mark the Island's "Heritage Year" celebrations in 1986 and generally follows the coast comprising terrain varying from shingle beaches at the Ayres to over 600 ft high hills and cliffs. The coastal sections may provide sightings of seabirds such as kittiwakes, Manx Shearwaters, puffins, guillemots and sea gulls together with grey seals, and at points inland the rare Manx Loaghtan sheep on areas protected by Manx National Heritage. ...

Product Description

There are nearly 40 inhabited islands off the coast of England and Wales, and dozens of other uninhabited ones. Some are well-known commercial, financial and holiday destinations, the Channel Islands, the Isle of Man, the Isle of Wight; others are small, remote, peaceful and mysterious like the Farne Islands, the Scilly Isles or Lundy. But all the inhabited ones and many of the uninhabited ones are reasonably accessible, and this richly illustrated book provides the first ever guide to them all. With details of their geology, history, flora and fauna, inhabitants and customs, it is also a practical book with information on how to get there, where to stay and eat, island walks and architecture, sites to visit, sights to see and details of relevant websites and contacts.

Editorial Review

Product Description

This book, drawing on wide experience of the Isle of Man, describes, interprets and explains the features that make the Island’s physical and human landscapes so distinctive and give it a unique sense of place. Although the editors have taken a strongly geographical approach to their theme, the book is unparalleled in writings on the Isle of Man in the broad range of contributions it has assembled: geology, quaternary science, geomorphology, archaeology, history, natural history, political science, demography, social policy and economics.

The book definitively reviews current geographical knowledge relating to the Isle of Man, bringing together hitherto fragmented, scattered and inaccessible work. Particular emphasis is placed upon the way in which geographers are returning to their intellectual roots with a renewed focus on both the distinctiveness and sense of place. By helping readers to understand the processes that formed, and continue to change, the Isle of Man’s unique physical and human landscapes, this book aims both to inform and to enhance enjoyment of the Island.

Product Description
High Quality Content by WIKIPEDIA articles! The Kingdom of Mann and the Isles was a Norse kingdom that existed in the British Isles between 1079 and 1266, and whose kings were vassals of the King of Norway. The Kingdom had two parts, Sodor (Old Norse: 'Suðr-eyjar'), or the South Isles (the Hebrides and Mann), and Norðr (Old Norse: 'Norðr-eyjar'), or the North Isles (Orkney and Shetland). In 1164 it was split into the Kingdom of the Hebrides and the Kingdom of Mann. Even today, the Bishop of the Isle of Man is the Bishop of Sodor and Man. The islands had been taken between c.700-900 AD, during the Viking invasions of the British Isles. In 872, Harald Hårfagre made himself king over the country of Norway. Large numbers of his former opponents took refuge the Orkney Islands, Faroe Islands, Shetland Islands, as well as the Hebrides Islands. ... Read more
