'This book is a must-have, and a joy to own ... superb.' --Books Monthly
About the Author:George Bradshaw became famous for producing the world's most successful and longest running combined railway timetable -- a publication to be found in the library of every Victorian traveller. But in the middle of the 19th century, with the railway network reaching its peak, his company shifted focus to tourist guides, such as this one, designed for the rail traveller.
