El Marqués de Salamanca y la amortización
Abstract
The rail companies were deeply affected by the economic crisis of 1866. The businessmen and the investors, pressed by their losses, asked the government about a way to face the problem. One of them, José de Salamanca, wrote a letter to the president Ramón Narváez suggesting him a project whereby the government took charge of the railways. This article analyses Salamanca’s project in the context of the aforemetioned crisis.Downloads
