In The Great Railway Revolution, Christian Wolmar tells us the
extraordinary one-hundred-and-eighty-year story of the rise, fall
and ultimate shattering of the greatest of all American endeavours,
of technological triumph and human tragedy, of visionary pioneers
and venal and rapacious railway barons. He also argues that while
America has largely disowned this heritage, now is the time to
celebrate, reclaim and reinstate it. America was created by its
railroads and the massive expansion of trade, industry and freedom
of communication that they engendered came to be an integral part
of the American dream itself.
