Thomas Brassey was the greatest railway builder in the world and a colossus of Victorian enterprise who has become, perhaps, the most unsung hero of his age. For some 30 years up to his death in 1870, Brassey was employing an average of 80,000 men on as many as a dozen railway projects simultaneously, in up to four continents. Brassey was a supreme exemplar of that workmanship, ingenuity, daring and commercial probity which built England's reputation all around the world for the next one hundred years. He was revered by his workforce, whom he in turn nurtured and treasured. Thomas Brassey, the Greatest Railway Builder in the World sets Brassey's achievements in the context of Britain's expanding worldwide role in the 19th century, and penetrates the character and qualities of a figure who surely deserves to be as famous and honoured as his friend and occasional colleague I K Brunel.

Recent changes in men's professional sports combined with major transformations in women's leisure lives have prompted rising numbers of women to enter the formerly male preserve of the sports stadium. This book explores this recent gendered shift in sports spectatorship, considering women's experiences in the contemporary period. Although there is a large body of research on sports fandom, the experiences of female fans have been largely marginalized in existing research. This book is a groundbreaking contribution to the small, but growing area of research on female sports fans.
