Steaming Across Britain Reviews

Publishers like to speak of their products being lavishly illustrated, and for once that much-overused phrase is entirely appropriate. This really is a gorgeous production, with its large format, glossy paper and mote than 350 well printed photographs, many of them in colour. Anthony Burton, writing in Countryfile magazine The demand for coffee table type books depicting the steam age in all its grime and glory appears to be insatiable, and Julian Holland has perfected the art of satisfying this demand.

Mail on Sunday THIS wonderfully researched, superbly presented book takes a nostalgic look back to the glorious final years of steam on Britain's railways in the 1950s and 1960s. The Sun
