History of the Milwaukee Road and its (repeated) descent into bankruptcy. The author, a former Administrative Law Judge, provides a clear explanation of the Milwaukee's role in railroading across the Northwest -- first as a partner with Hill's Northern Lines, then as a competitor as it built its own rival transcontinental line (the "Great Mistake"), and finally as the victim of mismanagement, bad judgment, political and regulatory interference and outright fraud. The book provides the painful detail of the Milwaukee's slow decay and final dismemberment. Illustrated with color photographs and maps.
