Ships and Railways

Name: Ships and Railways
Author: James Mather

Book Description

This 1st edition work is a scarce item. Its subject is the supply of London & southern England with coal from the northern coalfields by means of a railway. Mather fears that because ship-borne transport of coal will no longer be required some 45,000 British seamen will lose their employment. His arguments are backed by statistical detail and tables that appear in the text.
