Nothing Like It in the World: The Men Who Built the Transcontinental Railroad, 1865-1869
By : Stephen E. Ambrose, Jeffrey Demunn (Narrator), Jeffrey de Munn (Reader)
In this account of an unprecedented feat of engineering, vision, and courage, Stephen E. Ambrose offers an historical successor to his universally acclaimed Undaunted Courage. Nothing Like It in the World is the story of the men who built the transcontinental railroad. In Ambrose's hands, this enterprise comes to life. Ambrose writes with power and eloquence about the brave men -- the famous and the unheralded, ordinary men doing the extraordinary -- who accomplished the spectacular feat that made the continent into a nation.
