It is a must-have guide for every train fanatic, armchair or ticketed, as well as lovers of graphic design, history and the romance of railway travel.
'The romance of the overground railway pours from the edges of many of the images in Great Railway Maps...Few other subjects can envelop such a heady mixture of design, history, geography and - more often than not - usefulness. It's well worth alighting on' - Will Dean, Independent
'Just the ticket...it is a glorious celebration of the pioneering history - and romance - of the railways' - Sunday Times Travel Books of the Year 2011
'If you love railways or know someone who does...this is the book for you' - Robert Elms, BBC London
