About This Item
Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada: Douglas & McIntyre Ltd, 1990. Book. Very Good. Trade Paperback. 8vo - over 7¾" - 9¾" tall. viii, 328pp., index, biblio., notes, maps, photos, ill. Near fine. "Donald MacKay skillfully captures the drama of the CN story: the company's beginnings in the bitter aftermath of World War I; the colourful top executives who fought to keep CN on track; the locomotive drivers, conductors and other workers who have always been the cmpany's lifeblood. Lavishly illustrated, this book is more than the history of a railway - it is also the history of a country.".
