Originally published in 1938 as part of the English Institutions
series, this book contains a history of the General Post Office in
the UK. Crutchley begins by examining the historic roots of the
modern postal system, then goes on to describe how the post office
fulfils its various roles in society in Britain and
internationally, especially in the wake of the telephone and
telegraph. The text is illustrated with a number of photographs
showing postal infrastructure both past and present, and includes
an analysis of philately. This book will be of value to anyone with
an interest in the history of the Royal Mail.
