A WORLD HISTORY OF RAIL: From the Stream Regime to Today
There were 20,000 miles of railways in 1865 and about a million by 2020. Scale has always been a key theme in railway history. In this volume, Black examines how rail transformed the world. While always shaped by commercial interests, the role of the railway has been, and remains, strategic in the broadest sense.
