This complete and authoritative history of the railroad industry in the United States is richly illustrated with archival black-and-white material, as well as current and period color photography, maps, timetables, promotional materials and other memorabilia. Like its predecessor, the MBI title Classic American Railroads (1996), The American Railroad focuses on the greatest railroads in U.S. history, but also includes lesser-known operations representing all eras of the American railroad, from the mid-19th century to the present. Published in a handsome hardbound coffee-table format, the sweeping scope of The American Railroad is sure to appeal to general readers and die-hard enthusiasts alike.
