National Railways: An Argument For State Purchase is a book written by James Hole in 1895. The book presents an argument in favor of the state purchase of railways in the United Kingdom. Hole argues that the current system of private ownership of railways is inefficient and expensive, and that the state could provide better service at a lower cost. He also argues that state ownership would allow for greater regulation and control over the railways, ensuring that they serve the public interest rather than the interests of private shareholders. The book provides a detailed analysis of the current state of the railway system in the UK and outlines the benefits that would come from nationalization. It is a valuable historical document that sheds light on debates about the role of the state in the economy in the late 19th century.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
