Railroad buffs, historians, and casual readers alike will be delighted by the reappearance of Richard E. Prince's Atlantic Coast Line Railroad. First published over 30 years ago, Prince's book has been in great demand for its thorough examination of one of the South's preeminent railroads.

The author gives detailed histories of the Atlantic Coast Line's composite railways and subsidiaries, as well as connecting steamboat and ship lines operated or acquired by the organization. He documents the ACL's passenger and freight routes, which included popular services to and from New York and Havana plus Chicago and Florida. Prince's background in engineering informs the book, as he provides full descriptions, photographs, rosters, and pages of schematic diagrams of the railroad's steam locomotives.
