A rebel's rebel,
By
This review is from: The Denver and Rio Grande Western Railroad: Rebel of the Rockies (Regents Restoration Drama Series) (Paperback)
Given free rein to investigate anything about the company, its operations, finances, and history, Athearn uncovered some interesting tidbits. Although sponsored by the D&RGW, this book is an unbiased review of the legal wrangles which shaped the railroad, as well as of the operational practices which twice led it into -and out of-bankruptcy. A bit heavy on the intricacies of court documentation and testimony at the many hearings, "Rebel" still imparts the entrepreneurial spirit which created the Palmer road, as well as the pioneering attitudes which ensured the Slim Gauge would become an institution into the late 1960s.
