Hardcover. Condizione: Very Good. Condizione sovraccoperta: Very Good. First Edition - US. By the year 1850, railways in the more advanced countries of the world had passed the pioneering stages and in their methods of operation and their engineering were entering upon what could be called the formative years.

Illustrated with 80 pages of color plates. A very clean and tight copy with maroon cloth boards; slight foxing to edges of the glossy illustrated pages, and minor bumping to top of spine.
