Tells the dramatic story of how the railways revolutionised the nature of warfare, ushering in an age of industrialised conflicts in which wars were fought on a previously unimaginale scale. Christian Wolmar's epic account is counterpointed by a wealth of human stories of personal endeavour and private tragedy. Taking in every major conflict in which the 'iron roads' have played a part, this is an awe-inspiring tale of industrial might and the tranformative power of machinery.
