Railroads of Nevada and Eastern California, Vol. 1: The Northern Roads

This book is a comprehensive record of over 43 railroads of Nevada and California, many of them never before chronicled. Invaluable to railroaders, collectors, historians, Americana readers, and hobbyists. Indeed, this book and its companion volume are as much a history of the region and they are railroad books. The principal mines and mills and their production are scrupulously detailed, together with the personalities who created them. Lavishly illustrated with hundred of black and white photos. Originally published in 1962, the book has a new preface. 454 pages.
