Abstract

The last years of the nineteenth century witnessed a profound and many-sided transformation of European urban passenger transportation. Yet, in spite of its obvious importance from many points of view, there is not a single comprehensive study of this transformation and the electric streetcar revolution which made it possible. This book is an attempt to remedy that situation by means of a statistical and historical investigation of the growth of the European electric tramway industry between roughly 1890 and 1910.
