Description

Light foxing to eps and page edges. No inscriptions or other marks. A very clean very tight copy with unmarked black cloth boards and no bumping to corners. Dust jacket not price clipped or marked or torn with slight creasing to upper edge. 224pp. How the Industrial Revolution led to the emergence of hard thrusting entrepreneurs who covered the world with a web of iron and steel. The railways of today survive as a lasting monument to their success. The author covers railway mania in Britain, Europe and the USA from the 1830s onwards and then charts the careers of six railway 'Barons', two in Britain and four in the USA.
