Most widely held works by Herbert Railton

Coaching days and coaching ways by W. Outram Tristram( Book )

31 editions published between 1888 and 2018 in English and held by 626 WorldCat member libraries worldwide

This work, which unlike most of the books on the subject written at the time has retained its popularity, covers in great detail the major coaching roads to Bath, Exeter, Portsmouth, Brighton, Dover, York and Holyhead. The author considered the roads and the coaching inns from the viewpoint of the traveller, and did not confine himself to any particular era. The result is a fascinating series of descriptions of the social life which passes between the province and London

Stratford-on-Avon from the earliest times to the death of Shakespeare by Sidney Lee( Book )

8 editions published between 1904 and 1907 in English and held by 163 WorldCat member libraries worldwide

Sir Sidney Lee (1859-1926) was a lifelong scholar and enthusiast of Shakespeare, but is also remembered as the 'sub-editor' recruited by Sir Leslie Stephen when he was embarking on the project of the Dictionary of National Biography, and whose editorial and organisational skills were vital in keeping the publication programme close to its planned schedule. His own contributions to the Dictionary included an account of the life of Queen Victoria and (in Volume 51, 1897) William Shakespeare. This study of Stratford-on-Avon was first published in 1885, and the greatly enlarged version, reissued here, in 1890. (In 1898 Lee produced his biography of Shakespeare (also reissued in this series), regarded for much of the twentieth century as the most reliable account of Shakespeare's life.) This illustrated work draws on the archival material then available to provide a history of the town of Stratford up to the time of Shakespeare's death
