Customer Reviews

Know your Rail Road history!

This book shares the importance of connecting the USA's East Coast and the USA's West Coast.

Add a little history for your train buff!

My great-nephew loves trains. When I was looking for Christmas presents, this seemed a way to get him interested in history as well. His mother reports that it worked and he read the book to the end as soon as he got it. Any book that helps kids get into history is great by me!
