First published in 1845, this book outlines a plan for a railway tunnel connecting England and France underneath the English channel. Chalmers argues that such a tunnel would greatly benefit both countries by facilitating trade and travel. This book provides historical context for the later construction of the channel tunnel in the late 20th century.

Excerpt from The Channel Railway Connecting England and France: Illustrated by Chart of Soundings, and Lithographed Plans The idea of tunnelling is much the oldest; a French engineer, Mathieu, sixty years ago, considered the work practicable, pre pared plans, and laid them before Napoleon, then First Consul they were some time exposed in the Luxembourg and other public galleries in Paris; but they have long been lost; and there is now, it appears, no account extant of the then proposed method of accomplishing the work. The project of M. De Gamond, also a tunnel, appeared in 1856-7, and may be reckoned, along with others that appeared about the same time, as fruit of the exhibitions of 1851-4.
