Philosophy of railroads and other essays : Railroad promotion and manipulation in the 19th century.
T.C. Keefer's Philosophy of Railroads is one of the greatest hymns of praise to the age of iron and steel ever written in North America. Better than any other document it shows why railroads were seen as the arteries of the Canadian nation during the nineteenth century.
