Excerpt from Out of Town, Vol. 6

Paperback. Zustand: New. Print on Demand. This book is an analysis of the many difficulties, contradictions, errors, and general comprehensiveness of Bradshaw's Guide to Railways. Bradshaw, the author, has no doubt spent many years compiling his guide, but to the reader, it's a confusing mess. Fortunately, this book offers a way to understand the idioms, inside jokes, and turn of phrase that seems to riddle every page of Bradshaw's guide. By grappling with all the difficulties that make Bradshaw's guide so difficult to use, the author offers a nuanced critique not only of Bradshaw himself but of the entire mid-Victorian era in which he wrote.
