BLACKBURN HISTORY comes to life
Jason’s Magic Railway is a historical novel in which a young boy from our own time is magically transported into a world he could barely have imagined.
It has been carefully researched to provide as accurate a picture as possible of the lives of people living through the Lancashire Cotton Famine.
The major incidents that happen around Jason all took place during a few weeks in the autumn of 1862, when the distress was reaching its peak.
The book features charming original illustrations by Cheryl Bilocca, as well as a helpful plan of the central streets of Blackburn in the early 1860s.
