Offers a snapshot of Britain in the 1860s. This is a facsimile of the actual book, often referred to as "Bradshaw's Guide", that inspired the "Great British Railway Journeys" television series, and is possibly the only surviving example of the 1863 edition.

A luxury facsimile edition of Bradshaw’s Handbook of 1863, the book that inspired the BBC television series ‘Great British Railway Journeys’.

The original Bradshaw's guides had been well known to Victorian travellers and were produced when the British railway network was at its peak and as tourism by rail became essential. It was the first national tourist guide specifically organised around railway journeys, and this luxuryleatherbound facsimile edition is a true collector’s item, offering a glimpse through the carriage window at a Britain long past.
