A good book.,

This review is from: The West Virginia & Pittsburg Railway: A Western Maryland Predecessor (Hardcover)
I bought this book out of my love for railroad history and West Virginia history and when I can combine the two I am usually very happy.
I like this book in that it contains the facts to a very fine degree. I have two complaints though. The first is that it is like reading a time line. Rarely are two consecutive paragraphs related. The facts and events are relayed very well this way but it makes for very dry reading at times. My second complaint is that the maps and photographs are extremely small all through the book. It is very difficult to study and enjoy a map of an entire rail line when the map is only about 2" x 2" in the text. All in all, I did enjoy the book. I would recommend buying it, just keep a magnifying glass at your side for the photos and maps. |
