Hardcover. Condition: Very Good-. Dust Jacket Condition: Very Good. 165 p. 28 cm. Sound and square, black paper-covered binding. Unfortunately, there is some white staining to the top of the spine which has also run about 2" along the top edges of both boards. The stain is from the back of the dustjacket - I suspect being wet. There has also been moisture on the top of the text block which stuck together the top edge of a section of pages near the end of the book. I have opened all the pages, and there is some pull damage to them as a result. Otherwise the book is bright, clean and unmarked. The dust jacket spine is faded, and it is rubbed overall with some light edgewear. Over 150 original black and white photographs. The history of the Kettle Valley Railway of southeastern British Columbia, considered to be one of the most difficult and expensive railway lines ever built. May require extra postage due to the weight of the book. Seller Inventory # 778

Hardcover. Condition: Near Fine. Dust Jacket Condition: Near Fine. First Edition. A near-fine volume in a near-fine DJ. Dust jacket in Mylar jacket protector. B&W photos, illustrations and maps throughout; 4to 11" - 13" tall; 165 pages; Barrie Sanford, author of 'McCulloch's Wonder', presents a unique pictorial history of the legendary Kettle Valley Railway. Archival photographs and several from the author's personal collection illustrate the history of the Kettle Valley Railway from its construction through its turbulent lifespan and eventual demise. These moving visual images celebrate the magnitude of the engineering feats achieved by Andrew McCulloch and the many workers who made the railway a reality. Many workers died in the attempt to lay track across three mountain ranges and some of the world's most rugged river canyons. More lost their lives in the railway's subsequent years of operating freight and passenger services on the sometimes treacherous tracks of British Columbia's southern interior.
