A facsimile edition of Bradshaw’s fascinating guide to Europe’s rail network.

Bradshaw’s descriptive railway handbook of Europe was originally published in 1913 and was the inspiration behind Michael Portillo’s BBC television series ‘Great Continental Railway Journeys’.

It is divided into three sections: timetables for services covering the continent; short guides to the best places to see and to stay in each city; and a wealth of advertisements and ephemeral materials concerning hotels, restaurants and services that might be required by the early twentieth century rail traveller.

This beautifully illustrated facsimile edition offers a fascinating glimpse of Europe and of a transport network that was shortly devastated by the greatest war the world had ever seen.

George Bradshaw was an English cartographer, engraver, printer and publisher. He developed Bradshaw's Guide, a series of combined railway guides and timetables.
