A Primary Source Investigation of the Transcontinental Railroad
Author: Xina M. Uhl
Publisher: The Rosen Publishing Group, Inc
ISBN: 1508184259
Category : Juvenile Nonfiction
Languages : en
Pages : 64
Book Description
Before the merging of the Central Pacific and Union Pacific railroads, traveling West was a perilous, time-consuming endeavor. Native Americans hunted vast herds of buffalo across the plains and a few hardy pioneers lived in scattered, isolated settlements. The construction of the transcontinental railroad would change all that, opening up the means for coast-to-coast travel, boosting private enterprise, and nearly destroying Native Americans for good. A feat of engineering genius and human endeavor, this timely volume illuminates the hardships, accomplishments, greed, and racial conflicts of one of America's greatest achievements.
