Product Information
The Lord Nelson Class has come to be viewed as an also ran' amongst express locomotives and is largely overlooked for that reason. It had the misfortune to be sandwiched on Southern metals between the classic and much revered King Arthurs and Schools and by Bullied's controversial Pacifics. In such company any design might suffer by comparison. And yet when first appearing they attracted plaudits from railway professionals, including the footplate crew, and the public alike. But with only 16 being built their impact was muted and any faults in their design were magnified beyond their actual impact. In truth they deserved far better than this and were, in fact sturdy, reliable performers that served the company well on the heavy boat trains for which they were designed and across their other passenger services for 30 years and more in peace and war. Much has been written about these locomotives but no story is ever complete, with new information and photographs emerging to deepen our understanding of them. This book provides an in depth view that re-examines these impressive engines using, new material, eye witness accounts, contemporary assessments and more than 200 photographs and drawings. AUTHOR: Tim Hillier-Graves was born in North London in 1951. On leaving university he served with the Royal Navy seeing wide service on land and sea. For much of this time he specialised in weapons development projects, specifically missiles and heavyweight torpedoes, and worked alongside BAe, Marconi Space and Defence Systems and McDonnell Douglas in the process. In support of this work he undertook prolonged periods of study and research at the Royal Naval College, Greenwich, and the Royal Military College of Science, Shrivenham. Late in his career he changed specialisms and focussed on Human Resource Management and outsourcing, then as an Assistant Director took on responsibility of housing for military personnel. He retired in 2011 to concentrate more fully on writing and has had a number of books and articles on the Navy, railway engineering, aviation and military history published since the 1970s. All the royalties from his books have been and will be donated to Cancer Research UK in memory of his many relatives and friends who have succumbed to these illnesses. 200 colour and b/w illustrations

Thank you for being a straight trustworthy seller.WORDSEARCH PUZZLE BOOK 224 PUZZLES & SOLUTIONS PAPERBACK FLOCK MARBLED COVER (N° 293119881603)
- j***t (957)- Feedback lasciato dall'acquirente.Ultimi 6 mesiAcquisto verificatoBook arrived well packed in a sturdy cardboard package to prevent damage in transit and is exactly as described in the listing. Although eBay gave the item an unrealistic estimated delivery date (they do this to a lot of eBay sellers), the book arrived within an acceptable timeframe considering that the post always tends to get extremely busy in the weeks leading up to Christmas. I would have no hesitation in recommending this seller to other potential buyers.Damien Lewis SAS Forged in Hell Book NEW PB From Desert Rats to Dogs of War (N° 296716474619)
