| Editorial Reviews:
Book Description This richly illustrated account of the railway age in Britain shows how newly constructed railways transformed not only the landscape and economics but also the very culture of the nation. Michael Freeman examines the centrality of the railway in literature, art, and the public imagination as well as the financial and speculative developments of the time, illuminating Victorian life and the new world the railways made.
