In 'Rotterdamse Beren' keren we in eerste instantie terug naar 1926. Het jaar waarin de Rotterdamse werf van Piet Smit Jr. twee unieke schepen zou opleveren: De Jääkarhu en de Siberië.
De eerste een reus van een ijsbreker, vervaardigd voor Finland en de tweede de sterkste sleper van zijn tijd in ons land én tevens ook ijsbreker. Aan de hand van o.a. 50 foto's volgen we hun levensloop.

Het kloppend hart - Arnhemsche Scheepsbouw Maatschappij 1889-1978

For almost 90 years, a flourishing shipyard and machine factory was located in the heart of Arnhem: the Arnhemsche Scheepsbouw Maatschappij (ASM). For decades, the ASM was one of the city's largest employers, and its warehouses and cranes defined the face of the southern bank of the Rhine. The sound of the ships could be heard deep in the city.
After the shipyard was closed and dismantled, only a few foundations remained in an otherwise vacant lot. The ASM itself fell into oblivion.

This book aims to fill the gap in collective memory and revive the fascinating history of a shipbuilding family, their company and their employees. The story of the ASM runs from the industrialization in the nineteenth century via two world wars to the demise of shipbuilding in the seventies.

From steam engines via river tugs and dredgers to large seagoing vessels. From curly boy to director. Three authors describe different facets of that history. In addition, the book contains the stories of eight former employees and an abundance of visual material. The result is lively and multifaceted; a surprising window on a past that is actually still very close.

Turfschuiten en kustvaarders - Een geschiedenis van de Groninger scheepsbouw

The guild brothers of the barge makers' guild in the city of Groningen saw their employment increase significantly in the seventeenth century when the peat extraction of the peat colonies started. The demand for peat barges was so great that they were far from able to meet it. It therefore did not take long before numerous shipyards and shipyards were established in the newly reclaimed peat areas.

That was the beginning of a flourishing industry that still exists today. At first, peat barges were mainly built, but soon the skippers of Groningen asked for larger, seaworthy ships to be able to transport their goods further away. These ships came, with the builders taking into account the narrow canals.
This Dutch book describes the history of shipbuilding in Groningen, in which prosperity and crisis alternated, and shows how the shipbuilders adapted to the changing circumstances.
