Subterranean Railway

Revised and updated edition of Christian Wolmar's classic history of the London Underground, with a new chapter on Crossrail. 'I can think of few better ways to while away those elastic periods awaiting the arrival of the next eastbound Circle Line train than by reading [this book].' Tom Fort, Sunday Telegraph

De la epoca victoriana, metroul din Londra a jucat un rol vital in viata de zi cu zi a generatiilor de londonezi. In The Subterranean Railway, Christian Wolmar sarbatoreste viziunea si hotararea pionierilor din secolul al XIX-lea care au facut prima si inca cea mai mare cale ferata subterana de calatori din lume: una dintre cele mai impresionante realizari ingineresti din istorie.
