Railroad Stories: The Story of Industrial America (1850's -

Answering the call for stories that encourage reminiscing, mental stimulation, and discussion, Jim has created a library of original short stories entitled "The Story of Industrial America (1850's - 1950's)" that transport the reader to a bygone era we'll never see again and exposes them to fascinating people, places, and experiences that get scant attention in traditional historical works.Drawing upon decades of personal interaction with numerous industries and the people in them, Jim has developed a collection of colorful original accounts having to do with that special era in history that revolutionized industries we take for granted today - automobiles, communications, construction, electricity, iron and steel, logging and lumber, manufacturing, material handling, meatpacking, mining, motor trucks, oil and gas, railroads, textiles, transportation, and trolleys and inter-urbans in America.
