Synopsis

Some 25,000 miles of railways were constructed in India from 1850 to 1900, involving a considerable investment of British capital, their railway technology, the presence of a small number of their engineers, skilled workmen, and the mobilization of millions of Indian workers. This book represents the first, wide-scale examination of this subject in modern times.
