Book excerpt: "Nineteen papers presented to the Second International Early Railways Conference, discussing many aspects of the railways which preceded the main lines of the Railway Age, as exemplified by the cover picture of a South Wales coal train in 1821. The fruit of wide research, these authoritative studies embrace history and archaeology, locomotives and permanent way, financing and management. They shed new light and offer fresh perspectives on the formative years of railways, both in Britain and elsewhere." -- back of book.
