A beautifully illustrated and comprehensive history of the world's greatest railway maps, and the railways behind them. 'The romance of the overground railway pours from the edges of many of the images in Great Railway Maps . . . a heady mixture of design, history, geography and - more often than not - usefulness.' Will Dean, Independent 'This is one for the true drooler, page after page of track splendour from Algeria to Japan. In the UK, the 19th-century railway spreads through the country like shattering glass, but other maps are more leisurely and scenic . . . the reader may imagine themselves at every stop.' Simon Garfield, Guardian 'I hugely enjoyed poring over Mark Ovenden's Great Railway Maps of the World, beautifully produced and illustrated.' Richard J. Evans, New Statesman Books of the Year 'If you love railways or know someone who does . . . this is the book for you.' Robert Elms, BBC London

This is a set of equal area free hand sketch maps derived from a globe of the earth. Each map covers about 12 hundred miles horizontally and 9 hundred miles vertically or an area of approximately 1 million square miles. The sketches are purposely simple and show a minimum of non railroad detail in order to allow for notations, corrections, and additions. Place names are largely omitted to retain clarity. This series depcits a strong and expanding railway system. It also tends to put the lines in scale and depict them as systems, something which is never done in general atlases.
