Railway Journeys in Art Volume 1: Scotland by Richard Furness
The first volume in the Poster to Poster series, uses the National Railway Museum's wonderful archive of railway posters, paintings and carriage prints, to take a journey around beautiful Scotland. Each volume is a mixture of travel documentary, geographical and historical study, graphic artists' reference and poster database - all interlinked using the central theme of railway posters.
Richard Furness was born in East Shropshire in 1946, and railways have been a life-long interest. He is a professional engineer with Honours, Fellowships and medals awarded for his work in fluid dynamics, including a doctorate. The books were intended as a retirement project, but have snowballed in popularity. Volume 1 was voted Scotland's Non-Fiction Book of the Year in 2009 and the others are already critically acclaimed.
