About this book
Joseph Clarence Hemmeon's history of the British Post Office was printed at Harvard in 1912, paid for from the income of the William H. Baldwin, Jr., fund. The first four chapters follow the department's growth in time order, and the later chapters look at separate aspects of its work. The preface points to the era of high postal rates before penny postage, when a large net revenue was the aim, and to the Post Office's later moves into the telegraph and its dealings with the telephone companies. Tables for Scotland and Ireland appear in an appendix.
