Bradshaws Handbook - Railway
Guide
A
facsimile edition of Bradshaw's Handbook of 1863, the book that inspired
the BBC television series 'Great British Railway Journeys'. The original
Bradshaw's guides had been well known to Victorian travellers and were
produced when the British railway network was at its peak and as tourism
by rail became essential. It was the first national tourist guide
specifically organized around railway journeys, and this beautifully
illustrated facsimile edition offers a glimpse through the carriage
window at a Britain long past. |
