Lost Tramways of England: Birmingham North by Peter Waller
The city of Birmingham possessed the country's largest 3ft 6in gauge tramway, which was to survive through into the 1950s. This volume in the Lost Tramways of England series documents the history of the network's operation in the north of the city from the mid-19th to the mid-20th centuries. -- Cyngor Llyfrau Cymru
Brought up in Bradford, Peter Waller grew up witnessing the gradual decline of the city's trolleybus network. He studied history at university and also has a masters degree in industrial archaeology. In 1986, he began a career in publishing, working for a number of years for Ian Allan Publishing Ltd where he oversaw the commissioning and publication of a wide range of books. His first book, British and Irish Tramway Systems since 1945, was published in 1992 and since then he has written extensively on transport subjects. Moving to Shropshire in 2007, he is now a full-time author and editor and well as being a director and secretary of the Online Transport Archive and a committee member of the National Railway Heritage Awards.
