Photo Album on the First Phase of the Construction of the Benguela Railway, 1904 to 1907
This eBook is a reproduction of an Album of Photographs of the construction of the Benguela Railway gifted to Sir Robert Williams (R.W.) by J. Norton-Griffiths (J.N.G.). In an attached letter dated 12 December 1907 it is described ‘’as a small token for Xmas and the New Year, with best wishes and the hope that 1908 will see your (R.W.’s) great work well on its way towards completion’’. In reality the railway took a further 21 years to complete. Sir Robert Williams lived in Park House, Drumoak, Aberdeenshire, Scotland. He was granted the Freedom of the City of Aberdeen, and was created a Baronet (Bt.) of Park in 1928. The Album was among items of Sir Robert Williams’s estate that were bequeathed to the City of Aberdeen on his death in 1938.
