Book Description
Travel on Southern Antebellum Railroads yields a rich gathering of Southern lore about Jacksonian democracy, foreigners' reactions to the Southern scene, the segregation of women and Negroes, the development of safety devices, the nature and condition of stations and waiting rooms, and the marveling interest of European travelers in that most typically American of railroading inventions--the cowcatcher. At the same time, the author does not slight the spectacular and indeed unparalleled growth of rail travel in the South and throughout the United States during the first half of the nineteenth century, and the enormous changes that rapid transit worked in life styles and in the American economy. Here is fascinating information about early transportation technology and economics, presented in a delightfully pleasant form.

Book Description
Excerpt from A History of Transportation in the Eastern Cotton Belt: To 1860 The present book is a treatment of a part of a field, of which the whole is sketched in broad strokes in the Introduction. The Eastern Cotton Belt, falling mainly in South Carolina and Georgia, is perhaps the most important part of the South in its ante-bellum transporta tion development, and is in many regards illustrative of the whole. The other economic provinces, except the charleston-savannah coast district which is discussed in chapter one, are left for future treatment, whether by my own or another's pen.
