Julian Holland

    Tento autor se ponořil do světa železnic již od raného dětství, kdy jej obklopovaly rušné tratě a parní stroje. Jeho fascinace se rozvinula v celoživotní vášeň, která poháněla jeho rozsáhlou tvorbu. S praxí grafického designéra a art directora v předních londýnských nakladatelstvích přináší jedinečný vizuální cit do svého psaní o železnicích. Jeho díla detailně zkoumají historii, krásu a často zapomenuté příběhy železničních tratí po celé Británii i ve světě.
