From Amazon:

“With the deftness of a writer who knows his subject, author Wood presents a vivid account of this historic struggle that gives full meaning to the action and detail pictures of Philip Hastings, Fred Jukes, Jim Frederickson, Lee Pickett, Walt Mendenhall, Claude Witt, Walter Thayer, Stuart Hertz, W. R. McGee, Phil Kohl, Casey Adams, Howard Durfy and other famous railroad photographers. This is the book historians and friends of railroads knew would sometime come-the Great Northern classic, for every railroader, active or armchair.”
