Hardcover. Condition: Fine. Dust Jacket Condition: Like New. Dust jacket condition: Like New. This is the notorious book that got Gerard Fiennes sacked from British Railways while he was Chairman and General Manager of the Eastern Region in 1968. Fiennes became a railwayman by accident, joining the L.N.E.R as a Traffic Apprentice in 1928. Over the next four decades he worked himself up to the top of management tree, experiencing all facets of railway life--steam through diesel to electrification--on his way to the top. When he got there, he knew the service was ripe for a revolution, and he believed he was the man to lead it. But of course, it was the wrong time for a manager who thought that railways could be a success--Dr. Beeching was sharpening his axe and unprofitable lines were closed rather than turned round. After being resisted, circumvented, delayed and blocked, G. F. Fiennes ran out of patience and put pen to paper and ran his career into the buffers as he told the story of what happens when non-railwaymen tried to run the railway. 224 pages.

Owner's name on front end page. "Shows how the early efforts of the seamen started near the shores of rivers and afterwards of lakes and seas; how, as the seaman's art progressed, and the mechanic arts as well, their craft became stronger, and instruments of propulsion and navigation were devised. Then the navigator slowly enlarged the radius of his trips from shore, then cautiously ventured out upon the ocean, and finally launched out bravely into the unknown, leaving behind him the solid safety of the land." - Foreword.
