Letherby and Reynolds have conducted extensive research with all those concerned with trains, from leisure travelers and enthusiasts to railway workers and commuters.

The book also looks at the depiction of train travel through cultural media, such as music, films, books and art.

ISBN: 9781845451363 / Angielski / Miękka / 356 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych.

On The Slow Train: Twelve Great British Railway Journeys
ISBN: 9781848092082 / Angielski / Miękka / 208 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Never was the sadness of the end of an affair so poignantly expressed than in Flanders and Swann's elegy "The Slow Train." This beautifully-packaged book will take the reader on the slow train to another era when travel meant more than hurrying from one place to the next, the journey meaning nothing but time lost in crowded carriages, condemned by broken timetables. "On the Slow Train" will reconnect with that long-missed need to lift our heads from the daily grind and reflect that there are still places in Britain where we can stop and stare. It will tap into many things: a love of railways,...
