Titled "The Railway Conquest of the World", by Fredrick A. Talbot, copyright London 1911. This book, illustrated with over 100 photographs, describes railroads built in the US, Canada, the Alps, Alaska, Arabia, Egypt, Siberia, Africa and Asia. A very nice compendium of the railroad building days of the past and how challenges were met and overcome.
