Back when railroads were king, a boy's first trip alone on a train was a big step to manhood: symbolic of great trust by parents, not only in the boy, but in the railroad. Those days are gone. Stan Johnson, however, relives his own first journey on the Milwaukee Road's crack passenger train, the Olympian, on its transcontinental journey from Chicago to Seattle. This book nicely combines Johnson's ...

I want my money back
I've read a lot of self-published "research" books over the years, but this one takes the prize for sheer incompetency.

Extensive coverage of the surveying, funding, and trackwork required to build our favorite railroad's Pacific Extension, with particular focus on the area between Three Forks and Avery; the ...

I enjoyed this book very much
Because I have connections to the land that was the setting for the stories told in this book, it would be hard for me to be objective in reviewing this book. I lived among the people whose recollections are included in this book and their descendants for two years, when I worked for the Forest Service out of Kingston, ID, but I did not learn about their colorful history until I read "North ...
