Ian J. Kerr. Engines of Change. The Railroads That Made India. (Westport, CT: Praeger Publishers, 2007. 210 pp. ISBN 0-275-98564-4.

Engines of Change provides a readable, compact, up-to-date history of India's railroads, 1850-2001. The book places the railroads within their evolving historical contexts in an attempt to show how the railroads shaped the making of modern India, and also were affected by other forces involved in that same making, most notably colonialism and nationalism.
