Re: Your Railroad Book Library - toptrain - 06-07-2015
My books. Nothing has changed since March 25 when last I post info on my books. I liked going out to the old book store in Morristown NJ. Things have changed there and prices have gone up. Last three times there I could not afford anything. So much for the good book buys. Maybe I find something at a train show someplace. They do have a large amount of old postcards there still.
* Now to post something interesting. A pair of Books on the Lehigh Valley's Black Diamond.
* Well I be talk'in to you from time to time.

Engines of War
The author works form the premise that modern wars were made possible and enhanced by railroads.
An exhaustive history of railroads in wars throughout the world since the beginning.

Just added "Destination Algonquin Park: Tracks to Cache Lake and the Highland Inn" by Donald Beauprie. You can see it here on US Amazon, but the price is outrageous! It's only CAN$29.99 NEW, so how someone thinks they're going to get US$2500+ for a used one is beyond me.
Not strictly a railway book, however the GTR and CNR played a huge role in the development of Algonquin Park as a tourist destination.
