Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book presents an in-depth analysis of the preliminary surveys and reports of the Pacific Railroad Company, a venture chartered in 1850 to create a railroad line between St. Louis, Missouri and the western boundary of the state. The author, James P. Kirkwood, thoroughly examines the three proposed routes for the railroad, which were surveyed in 1850. Kirkwood considers the challenges and advantages of each route, taking into account factors such as terrain, cost of construction, and potential traffic. He also discusses the broader context of the project, including the political and economic climate of the time and the significance of the railroad for the development of Missouri and the nation as a whole. Through its detailed examination of the Pacific Railroad Company's surveys and reports, this book provides valuable insights into the complexities of railroad construction in the mid-19th century and the role of railroads in shaping the American landscape.
