Somenewevidencehas comeforwardinrecent years,andafewpet theoriescannowbefinally squashed.

Itis,however,inthe presentationofStephenson themanthatthisbook shines,andattheendwe feelwehavebeenreading aboutapersonratherthan anhistoricalfigure.

GeorgeStephensonhas beenhelduptogenerations ofschoolchildrenasa shiningexampleofaboy fromthetrackswhoeducatedhimselfatnightschool afteraharddayonthe coaltrucks,andacquireda degreeofeducationwhich tookhimtothetopofthe engineeringprofession.

Itseemsashametodebunkastorywithsuchan excellentmoral,butthe truthseemstobethatsuch educationashedidacquire wasofaveryelementary kind,andthathecompletelylackedtheabilityto assimilatetheoreticalknowledge.

WhatStephensondidhave wasremarkablepowersof observation,andamechanicalbentwhichamountedto intuition.Healsohada nativeshrewdnesswhich

generallygothimoutof troublebutwhichwasinsufficienttosavehimfrom publichumiliationwhen hewascross-questionedon thetechnicaldetailsofone ofhisprojects.

Itwastoprovidehimselfwithanassistantto offsethisdeficienciesin educationthatGeorgemade sureofanadequateschoolingforyoungRobert.The historybooksgivetheimpressionofapoor,hardworkingfathermakingsure thathissonreceivedthe educationhehimselfhad missed,but,infact,George wascomfortablysituatedat thetime,andhismotives werenotentirelythoseofa fondparent.

Itisforthisreasonthat Mr.Rolthasjoinedthetwo together;infactheexpressestheopinionthatRobert wasprobablythemore valuablememberofthe team,buthismodestyand hisrespectforhisfather causedhimtokeepoutof thelimelightuntilhismiddleyears.

Thisisamostinteresting bookforanyonetoread, butIthinkIshouldparticularlystressitsvalueto teachersandtohigh-school students.ItgivesanexcellentbackgroundofEngland inthe19thcentury,aclear andscientificexplanationof thedevelopmentofrailways,andasympathetic andcolourfulportraitof twoveryinterestingpeople.
