Rating for Frisporet Publishing House Copenhagen - Odense by Flemming Søeborg

The product is not yet rated

The book is a pleasure journey in time and place throughout the entire life of the railway,
with detours back in time and comments on everything you see
- and especially don't see - along the way. Who knew, for example, that the discovery
of color blindness was due to the railway? Or why were Ane Marie Nielsdatter and Jørgen Hansen beheaded outside Slagelse in 1847? This incident - as well as many other exciting stories - is told in this book, which can be read
alongside the journey - or at home in your armchair.
Large section on the Great Belt crossing in historical and contemporary perspective..

An entertaining and captivating book for everyone who loves to travel
- and experience along the way. H.C. Andersen is one of the faithful companions
in the book, from the moment he tells about the railway for his wondering contemporaries, until he disappears into the mists of memory in Odense.

Richly illustrated with current and historical pictures and drawings.
With a foreword by the museum director of the Danish Railway Museum,
dr. phil. Poul Thestrup.
