The Little Book of Steam by Clive Groome

The Little Book of Steam is written by Clive Groome, an ex-British Rail driver and fireman, who now runs the Bluebell Railway. It is the compelling and inspiring story of Steam from its earliest origins, with developments of the GWR and Brunel’s involvement in the creation of railways. Though steam is no longer our main source of motive power it has lost none of its romance. How many of us have gazed longingly into the cab of a simmering engine as the crew prepare her for the journey ahead? A superb book for all steam enthusiasts.
