	Fascinating biography of [[Henry Greenly]], one of the leading figures in the early 1900s in promoting the hobby of model engineering and the building of small-scale garden and public railways in England and on the Continent. Greenly's work is reviewed from all angles and brings his buoyant personality to life. Greenly's first book, [[The Model Locomotive]], was the first serious attempt to produce a textbook which placed the model steam engine on a firm basis whereby fundamental engineering principles and laws of mechanics were applied.
