In 'Historic Railroads,' we do, however, get a picture of how railroads grew and of their effect on the life of the country. The author vividly recounts the days of the stage-coach; the first attempts to apply the newly discovered power of steam to an engine that would pull cars over a road of rails; the excitement surrounding the first trains, the opposition, the discouragement and the final success. Here is the romantic, dramatic story of railroads reaching out to encircle the globe - railroads finally linking every corner of the world."

Nice interior - the pages are clean with only a few light finger smudges to a few pages at the front; both the front and rear pastedowns have a partial outline of a strip of tape (from the tape used on the clear protective sleeve over the jacket).
