Description

Grand Old Days of Steam by W. W. Stewart. "The steam locomotive," writes W. W. (Bill) Stewart "was the most human machine invented by man" - the reason no doubt why those "iron horses" stirred so many imaginations during their time on earth and, since their general demise, have left so many memories. To a far greater degree than achieved by any other means of mechanical transport the steam locomotive became an integral part of life for several generations of New Zealanders during the nineteenth and much of the present century. It carried them to school and work, transported them on holidays and to distant relations, and, most importantly, served to bring the country closer together, joining town and country.' A LARGE BOOK THAT WILL REQUIRE ADDITIONAL FREIGHT.
