The Story of the First Trans-Continental Railroad

By William Francis Bailey

Book Overview

The Story of the First Trans-Continental Railroad is an American history classic by W.F. Bailey. The building of the Pacific Railroad was one of the great works of man. Its promoters were men of small means and little or no financial backing outside of the aid granted them by the Government. It took nerve and good Yankee grit to undertake and carry out the project. How it was done it is hoped the succeeding pages may show.
