Reviews

'... quite excellent... The high standard of all the contributions is a great credit to the the discipline of railway studies that Simmons laboured so hard to promote... the festschrift does not usually come this good... a worthy tribute to a great scholar... It is highly recommended.' National Railway Museum Review '... a collection that offers refreshingly rounded view of what railway history can be when it escapes, as Simmons anticipated many years ago, from its traditional technological and economic paradigms.' Literature and History '... a worthy tribute to this country's most distinguished railway historian... an excellent collection at an attractive price.' Journal of the Railway and Canal Historical Society
