What was it really like to take the LNER's Art Deco Coronation
streamliner from King's Cross to Edinburgh, to cross the Atlantic
by the SS Normandie, to fly with Imperial Airways from Southampton
to Singapore, to steam from Manhattan to Chicago on board the New
York Central's 20th Century Limited or to dine and sleep aboard the
Graf Zeppelin? In the course of The Journey Matters, Jonathan
Glancey travels from the early 1930s to the turn of the century on
some of what he considers to be the most truly glamorous and
romantic trips he has ever dreamed of or made in real life. Each of
the twenty journeys allows him to explore the history of routes
taken, and the events - social and political - enveloping them.
Each is the story of the machines that made these journeys
possible, of those who shaped them and those, too, who travelled on
them.
