Synopsis
From the very first passenger train to roll down the tracks in 1825 to the advent of today's high-speed trains, the railroad has been and is still one of the most vital forces in civilization. Focusing on American railroad history but touching on other countries, award-winning author Milton Meltzer shows how something as ubiquitous as the railroad is, in fact, a force that changed the world.

The author lives in New York City. From the Hardcover edition.

    Once this arch is removed from the plastic packing, it's even more perfect without the glare. Exactly as pictured and described. Decent price for a quality figurine, such as this. Packaged well to avoid damage and sent promptly.
