To Move with the Times: The Story of Transport and Travel in Scotland - Softcover
The cartoon style cover does not reflect the highly researched text and photographs within. The book is concerned with the social effects of transpor,t or lack of it, on everyday life of the people. It omits sea transport except in so far as it affected something closely involved with land transport, such as ferries. There is a small chart showing wages in the 1790s and the early 1800. Coaching, train travel, turnpike roads, bridges and their impact on industry, leisure, postal services, education etc are discussed. There is a large bibliography and chapter notes.
