The LAST AMERICAN FRONTIER by Frederic Logan Paxson (1922) FAR WEST

Lot # 12      

Good condition, hardcover, MacMillan & Company (1922) "I have told here the story of the last frontier within the United States, trying at once to preserve the picturesqu...moree atmosphere which has given to the "Far West" a definite and well-understood meaning, and to indicate those forces which have shaped the history of the country beyond the Mississippi. In doing it I have had to rely largely upon my own investigations among sources little used and relatively inaccessible. The exact citations of authority, with which I might have crowded my pages, would have been out of place in a book not primarily intended for the use of scholars. But I hope, before many years, to exploit in a larger and more elaborate form the mass of detailed information upon which this sketch is based."

TRAIN WRECKS A Pictorial History of Accidents on the Main Line by Robert Reed

Lot # 23      

TRAIN WRECKS A Pictorial History of Accidents on the Main Line by Robert Reed, Published by Bonanza. Very good condition in good dust jacket in protector. 183 pages b/w p...morehotos - "American railroad history is filled with accounts of misadventure. Steam boilers blew up. Bridges collapsed under the weight of heavy engines. Locomotives crashed head-on because of signal failures. Passenger cars derailed, often with dire results. Lightly built wooden coaches splintered on impact, and the debris often ignited from the coals in the iron stoves used for heating. In the mid-nineteenth century American railroading was burgeoning--a growth too fast for safe operations. Despite the grim statistics of 19th and early 20th century train wrecks that resulted, one cannot help but find the photographs and public prints of the day interesting."
