Ellis, Hamilton, C. British Railway History, an outline from the accession of William IV to the Nationalisation of Railways, 1877-1947
United Kingdom George Allen & Unwin 1959 Pre First Edition Hardback in Dustjacket Very Good Very Good
A hardback in dustjacket. A considerable 416 printed pages in this the second volume of Ellis's comprehensive history. Mostly text but complimented by a number of black and white plates plus a colour frontispiece. In this volume, Hamilton Ellis writes about the latter years - the proud years - and the passing of the railway monopoly. With both internecine war and government interference in their wake, many railway companies had high prestige, at least for a while. By 1877 there was a railway system at least distantly familiar, with an already vast network, quite handsome express trains and tremendous traffic in coal and minerals. In 1890 came the first electric underground railway in the world in London. During the same proud years came the motor challenge. Difficult years followed. Also there were 2 major wars which would have been lost without the railways. Between these wars came the grouping of the main-line undertakings into four great companies. The northern lines were shaky; the southern suffered a press campaign, here analysed for the first time. In the midst of company history Ellis never forgets the railway itself - track, signals, locomotives and vehicles. He closes his narrative with the passing of the companies in 1947. He does not pull his punches, impartially castigating railway stodginess, motor chicanery and Government dishonesty. But he loves his subject and believes in railways. This volume completes the first general popular history of the British railway companies. . A very good hardback copy with a name penned to the front endpaper and is contained within a very good dustjacket that has some minor edge tearing
