What is Mackenzie's Magic Steam : as Seen Through a Glass Darkly about?

This book features 100 black and white photographs of British steam engines taken from magic lantern slides. Depicted are those elderly work horses condemned to the cutter's torch 70 to 80 years ago, down to the many steam giants which shared the same fate in the total destruction of all things steam in the 1960s. Together they provide a valuable insight into the development of the locomotive over the years, to the hundreds of different types that have operated on our railway system, and last but by no means least, supply an aid to the memories of those who are fortunate enough to have worked with these most fascinating of machines - the steam engine, as seen through a glass, darkly.
