One of our occasional posters, James Waite from England, is the author of a new book Twenty First Century Narrow Gauge: A Pictorial Journey, I met him last December when he visited Boulder City, Nevada, to see the Eureka operate. During a follow up exchange of emails he told me of that the book of his is photographs was being published this year.
I advance ordered the book direct from the publisher and it arrive a week ago. This is a color pictorial journey around the world that starts in North American and then takes us through Central and South American before heading to Europe, Africa, and Asia before concluding with Australia and New Zealand. Steam -- no diesels -- operating with a few displayed locomotives. 288 pages, hardcover
The book is available through Amazon Books and Barnes & Noble and probably other on-line sellers.
The publisher is Pen and Sword Books out of England which has been a publisher of military subjects for years and has expanded into transportation topics.
