Iron Rails in the Garden State: Tales of New Jersey Railroading (Railroads Past and Present) - Hardcover
Iron Rails in the Garden State is a sampler of unique and fascinating stories about railroading in New Jersey, culled from archives and independent research. It is a collection of historical vignettes, and because it is not tied to a particular time or railroad line, Anthony J. Bianculli is free to move from one story to another, entertaining the reader with anecdotes of New Jersey railroad pioneers, sacred sites, and expensive mistakes. Included in this book are tales from railroad literature that have not been told at length until now.

From the Publisher:
"Ideal for the casual reader who likes snatches of serious history without slogging through piles of specialized works [on the subject] or articles dating back to who remembers when. I give this book a thumbs up." --Herbert H. Harwood, Jr., author of Invisible Giants: The Empires of Cleveland's Van Sweringen Brothers
About the Author:
