Only superlatives can do justice to ... Stilgoe's METROPOLITAN CORRIDOR. It is a physically handsome book whose layout and design subtly compliments and supports Stilgoe's themes.... Stilgoe's engaging and lyrical writing skillfully recreates a visual and psychic imagery that transports us, the reader, back to a time when railroads had a powerful grip on American life and imagination.... A wealth of detail, imagery and imaginative insight made this exploration of a past time and mindset come alive.... It will be welcomed enthusiastically by all devotees of American studies. --Emil Peacock, Material Culture
