A companion to his earlier Bristol Royal Mail, this collection of historical facts follows the mails of Bristol, once the second city of the kingdom, from 1580 onward: post-boys and coach roads, the mail coaches, the coming of the railway mail services, and the statutes that punished postal servants who secreted or embezzled letters.

Rich local detail for postal historians, coaching enthusiasts and Bristolians. Download the free EPUB.
