The Bridges of Madison Railroad

Klappentext

The Bridges of Madison Railroad is a book dedicated as a capstone to the 40 years of history of the Madison Railroad. It also caps the 182 years since construction began at North Madison, IN and celebrates all those who fought to keep her alive and breathing when it appeared all hope was lost. The interesting thing about a row of dominoes, much like history, is if any one domino is missing, it simply stops. The history of so many railroads did just that, stopped. So many times during the history of Indiana's first railroad there were multiple opportunities for all to be lost. Well done, good and faithful servants, well done indeed.In cooperation with Madison Railroad, the author, Charlie Wise, reprises the character of Ol' John Brough, a major player in the journey and a true piece of work.
