5.0 out of 5 stars A terrific read for history lovers, September 1, 2004
I have had the opportunity to rub shoulders with Dr. Tutorow for many years, and was most pleased to learn some 5 years or so ago that he, with Mrs. Tutorow's able assistance, was to write the history of Amasa Leland Stanford. As the book progressed, I was fortunate to be able to review the chapters written re: the Central Pacific Rail Road. I can truthfully say that Dr. Tutorow is a veritable bull dog when it came to finding the human details that enriched our State and the West as the Rail Road was built. Norman also asked Lynn Farrar, retired Valuation Engineer for the So. Pac. RR and other railroad historians to review this work; I am pleased to report that the result of Norman's hard labor and the suggestions from many of the finest historians alive today is a rich trove of nuggets never before seen in print.
If you have an interest in California history, history of the West, history of the building of an empire or a desire to gain more knowledge of commerce in the West, this book is a must read.
Printed in a limited edition by the Arthur Clark Co., when this book is sold out it may be difficult to find one for sale.
This book is printed in two volumes, has some 1500 pages, and over 5,000 footnotes. Truly history for historians.
