Book Synopsis
A volume on railroading in the pre-Civil War South. It encompasses a number of social, political, and even ideological subjects.

Trade Review
Here is a carefully researched account of all aspects of railroading - engines, cars, life aboard, perils of the road, stations - with much contemporary flavor [from] this boisterous era. - Anniston Star ""A charming and informative examination of the early years of railroads. It is also history of the kind I like best: a study not of great events or momentous trends, but of how people lived."" - Jonathan Yardley, Miami Herald ""Excellently and extensively illustrated and can be recommended to all interested in trains and southern social history."" - Journal of Southern History
