Fantastic book about history,
By Jaime (New York, NY USA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Railroads of the West (The American West) (Library Binding)
I loved this book. I learned about history and what really happened when Americans were building railroads back then. I would reccomend it to anyone else.

Good resource for students,
By A Customer
This review is from: Railroads of the West (The American West) (Library Binding)
My son used Railroads of the West for a 5th grade history project. He ended up relying on this book for the bulk of his research. Afterward, he begged me for a trip to the railroad museum near our home! Magram's book puts human faces and life stories to the history of an American industry.

Entertaining history book,
By Dobson (San Diego, CA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Railroads of the West (The American West) (Library Binding)
If only all textbooks were written this way. The book describes history through personal experiences. Sidebars are very useful.

An Educational Delight!,
By A Customer
This review is from: Railroads of the West (The American West) (Library Binding)
Magram's vivid description and anecdotal presentation make for an excellent learning tool. Layout is coffee table-style, but the contents of each page leave young readers well informed. Includes glossary of bold terms.
