Every year more passengers go to swell the millions already carried by Londons Underground, and all the time these railways maintain their reputation for remarkable efficiency and absolute safety.In this book, first published some ten years ago and now appearing in a new edition which takes account of subsequent developments, the author tells the story of this great undertaking in language acceptable not only to the enthusiast but also to the interested layman.
