Synopsis
This book discusses the economic and strategic benefits of a transcontinental railway system in British India. The author explores how such a system would connect the main governing states by rail, as well as the military significance of such an investment. The author goes on to discuss the agricultural importance of such a system, by highlighting the cash-crop cotton trade that thrived in the region and the problems faced in transporting goods from the interior to the coast for export. The author concludes that with railways these problems would be solved, and that the system would create great opportunities for economic growth, as well as strategic advantages in protecting British India.
