5.0 out of 5 stars
A Must Have For The Quanah, Acme & Pacific or Frisco Fan,
By Charlie (Maine) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Quanah Route: A History of the Quanah, Acme, & Pacific Railway (Hardcover)
This book is 215 pages in length. It is a comprehensive history of the Quanah, Acme & Pacific Railway. The author has done a more than wonderful job of presenting the information in a fascinating way. I stayed awake too late on quite a few nights reading this book. The Q. A. & P. was a very small railroad but makes up for its size with loads of history and it's all in this book. My interest in this railroad is due to the fact that it later became part of the St. Louis - San Francisco (Frisco) Railway. If you are a railroad history buff you will love this book. My highest rating!

Great history of the region,
By Thomas A McDonald (Austin, TX United States) - See all my reviews
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: The Quanah Route: A History of the Quanah, Acme, & Pacific Railway (Paperback)
The details of the economic history, in which the rail line played an integral role, is impressive. The politics, pro and con, of proposed line extensions was fascinating as was the discussion of the Matador Ranch's role in providing land for settlers and ensuring demand for rail service.
