Britain's most celebrated living railway artist, John Austin, has resisted numerous requests to compile a book about his life and work - until now. This long-awaited title, beautifully produced in large format on art paper, presents 100 of his best portrayals of steam trains, each painting accompanied by text explaining the setting, the subject and the techniques used, and in some cases the preliminary sketches. An honorary fellow of the Guild of Railway Artists, John Austin also describes his own professional background.
