From the Publisher
synopsis
The late nineteenth century brought a transportation explosion in North America and Europe, much of it produced by the steam engine, which by that time had become strong and versatile enough to power ocean-crossing vessels and large freight trains. Where Rails Meet the Sea tells the exciting story of how the transportation industry was revolutionized by steam power and how the industry in turn changed the face of the world. Written by an expert in the history of ships and trains and heavily illustrated throughout, Where Rails Meet the Sea is a fascinating volume that details the history of the most transformative industry of the twentieth century.
