| The Baldwin Locomotive Works, 1831-1915: A Study in American Industrial Practice |
| By : John K. Brown |
In The Baldwin Locomotive Works, 1831-1915, John K. Brown combines economic, business, labor, and social history and the history of technology to write a dazzling account of this giant of nineteenth-century industry. Comprehensive and heavily illustrated, Brown's study analyzes the structure of railroad demand; the forces driving continual innovation in locomotive design; Baldwin's management systems, shop-floor skills, and career paths; and the evolution of production methods.
