Paperback. Condizione: New. Print on Demand. This book traces the genesis of the American boxcar from its nascent roots in the mid-19th century to its position as an integral cog in a sophisticated, interconnected network of shipping in the present era. The author probes deeply into the reasons for the boxcar's proliferation during the Civil War through the late 19th century. He examines its engineering, its historical role in opening up a continent, and the cultural impact the boxcar has had on Americana. The book also looks ahead to the future of the boxcar in a world where global trade relies heavily on intermodal and multimodal shipping practices.
