Synopsis
Few countries in the world have a history of railroading to match Canada's for daring, imagination and engineering achievement. And few countries owe as much to the development of rail transportation. In this handsome volume, a distinguished researcher with an eye for human as well as technical detail has produced a rich visual history of Canada's railways.
