“Andrew Humphries’s timely monograph offers an in-depth exploration of D. H. Lawrence’s fascination with technologies of transport, and of the multiple ways in which this fascination informs his major novels. … Humphries’s study will thus be welcomed by students and scholars of modernist literature, as well as by those interested in the intersection of technologies of transport with the literature and culture … Humphries consistently and skilfully blends close textual analysis with rich contextual detail … .” (Emma Short, The Journal of Transport History, Vol. 39 (1), 2018)
