Beschrijving

Bol Partner A thoughtful history of U.S. and Canadian rail: motivation; borrowing from Britain (minor and brief); unique developments suitable to U.S. geology & population density; technical advances; economics; promotion; and operation. Vance (geography, emeritus, U. Cal. Berkeley) begins with the now obvious contrasting of flat British rails connecting developed places by means of costly light grades with the economically compelled steeper (cheaper) grades and powerful locomotives. A great work; it is from our greatest scholarly RR publisher. Annotation c. by Book News, Inc., Portland, Or.
