OverviewMore than any other town in Britain, Liverpool has been shaped by its historic dependence on ships and seaborne trade. In this analytical essay, which is a revised and updated edition of the 1987 book, Liverpool: Gateway of Empire , the author describes how the structures and the everyday experiences of shipowners, seafarers, merchants and dockers have together produced a city with a distinctive social character. The city's dependence on shipping and commerce has ended, but its passing is recent enough for them still to exert a powerful influence and give the city its individual character.
