Customer Reviews

A fascinating and inspiring journey

Why has no one reviewed this book yet?? I suddenly feel duty-bound to put in some words for it - all of them good. This book is funny and touching, and even educational -- I learned all kinds of interesting things about how railroads run (and about the people who run railroads). It's the kind of book you may have trouble putting down, as you'll want to find out where Ms. Neimann travels next.
