?No matter how deeply Jim plunges into the poverty and filth of England’s industrial age, he never loses his sense of wonder at the monstrous beauty of its great machines.”?New York Times Book Review
?Fairly bursts with energetic prose . . . Andrew Martin succeeds brilliantly at re-creating a railwayman’s lot.” ?Seattle Times
