Published by Macmillan Press in 1988.

Tells the history of NTG from its formation at Nationalisation in 1949, to its demise upon privatisation of the Gas Industry in 1986.

Another well detailed history, which takes the story on from the Gas light & Coke Co volume, this company having become part of the NTG at Nationalisation and, indeed, formed nearly four-fifths of it.

The two volumes together thus form a complete history of the supply of gas to the eastern half of London.

Approx 40 illustrations and 60 tables, charts and maps.
