American Locomotives: A Pictorial Record of Steam Power, 1900-1950

256 pp. "Here is a pictorial history of American railroad motive power as it developed from 1900 - a continuation of the story begun with Iron Horses. From the first Atlantic and Prairie types, fifty years of progress are shown by well over 100 full-page plates, together with diagrams and descriptions. The locomotive illustrations have been carefully chosen to show milestones in improved designs and for photogenic interest. Every major railroad is represented."
