This is Volume 26 of the report from the Railroad Commission of Georgia, likely detailing the commission's activities and decisions during the year 1898. Such reports offer invaluable insights into the regulation of railroads at the state level during a crucial period of American economic development. The late 19th century saw significant growth and consolidation in the railroad industry, accompanied by increasing public concern over issues of fair pricing, competition, and service quality.
Researchers, historians, and anyone interested in the history of American railroads, regulatory bodies, and the economic development of Georgia will find this volume a valuable resource. The meticulous record-keeping and detailed reports provide a window into the past, illuminating the challenges and opportunities faced by both the railroad industry and the government agencies tasked with overseeing it.
