He was editor of Railroad Magazine for over 12 years. He wrote widely about railroad history, legend and lore, including famous personalities such as Casey Jones, John Henry, Jesse James and Kate Shelley. This is the first comprehensive encyclopedic guide to the story of railroading in the United States and Canada. It is more than a monumental, information-packed reference work. It is a superb testimonial to an industry that helped shape the destiny of our continent. From the first sail-propelled and horse-drawn vehicles to travel on rails through the great age of transcontinental railroad building to the rail industry's then current status and situation. It is a treasure trove of information on the history and lore, triumphs and disasters, railroad lines and equipment and economics, inventors and tycoons and labor leaders who played major roles in North American railroading. The information is alphabetically arranged for convenient access. A fascinating selection of photographs, lithographs, and drawings supplement the text. Each major entry includes a selected bibliography. Careful cross-referencing and an exhaustive index enable a reader to find a particular piece of information quickly and easily.
