Early Wooden Railways

By M.J.T. Lewis

The basic principle of the railway is one of great antiquity and wooden railways were used in many European mines from the fourteenth to the twentieth century. But the most far-reaching developments, as Dr. Lewis shows in this classic and hard-to-find reissued book, originally published in 1970, took place in British coalfields.
