Description
Trace of foxing to page edges. No inscriptions or marks. A very clean very tight copy with bright unmarked boards and no bumping to corners. Price clipped dust jacket not marked, torn or creased with very minor traces of handling. 183pp. In an entertaining yet authoritative manner, the author traces the evolution over 110 years of the royal train from the first enthusiastic sampling by Queen Victoria through all the advanced features which later made it onto our standard passenger stock. Includes some foreign examples.
