| The North American Railroad: Its Origin, Evolution, and Geography (Creating the North American Landscape) |
| By : James E., Jr. Vance |
In The North American Railroad, James Vance offers a sweeping account of where and why rail lines were built in various regions and at different times across the continent. He tells why the United States and Canada developed distinctive forms of rail technology - surprisingly different from those of Britain, where railroading originated. And he explains how these developments convey with particular clarity the continent's unique historical geography.
