Item description from seller

1972 Adams & Dart 196pp including index. For this first illustrated historical study, the author has drawn extensively on original documents not only to show how the line developed from an early idea to a mighty trunk route, but also to analyse how the relationship between Stephenson and his devoted pupil Locke turned to bitter antagonism. In addition, John Rastick's part in the history of this line is illustrated by reference to his hitherto unpublished notes and plans for the Southern part of the Grand Junction. Hardback with dustcover in excellent condition 17cm x 22cm ISBN 239001052.
