96 p. With Twenty-four full-color plates and 196 duotone illustrations. Large oblong folio. 39 x 53 cm. Original blue cloth binding. Dust wrapper with a few repaired tears. In the commentary Anthony Burgess laments "the loss of the romance of this splendid age, crushed in the rapacious maw of the industrial 19th century with its iron foundries, boilers, and coal smoke." He deftly employs quotation s from Fielding, Smollett, Johnson, Surtees, and Austin to animate the coaching world of Tom Jones and Mr. Jorrocks. The illustrations are drawn from a broad range of pictorial sources including Hogarth, Rowlandson, and the master of the coaching print - James Pollard. Many are (sadly?) suitable for framing. Though often thrown in with a lesser class of 'Coffee Table Book' this is really one of th e most compelling modern books on transportation life before the age of steam. "What a delightful thing's a turnpike road, So smooth, so level, such a mode of shaving the earth As scarce the eagle in the broad Air can accomplish with his wings waving: Has such been cut in Phaeton's time, the god Had told his son to satisfy his craving With the York Mail" -- Lord Byron, 'Don Juan' Canto X .
