The engines that drive this intensive port industry are the 'naties'. These age-old corporations have survived all the political, social and economic turbulence that history has brought their way. Their inborn flexibility has always enabled them to adapt to the most radical changes. They have cut steadfastly through the turbulence of the economic recession and, despite the general decline of the European ports, they continue to invest, with a firm belief in the future. No one who drives through the port can fail to remark their ubiquitousness on all the quays, in all the distribution zones, and at all the terminals. The Association of Cargo Handlers is delighted with the excellent research carried out by the Authors. Their quest has taken them to the very roots of the Antwerp nations and revealed an undreamt-of quantity of interesting material. We hope that the reader will derive great pleasure from the book and that this historical document will impart much about the mysterious, rich and fascinating lives of the Antwerp nations."
