    Taschenbuch. Condizione: Neu. Neuware - 'The 17' is a compelling narrative that breathes life into the golden age of American railroading through the journey of a single steam locomotive. Written by Edwin C. Washburn, this work offers a unique perspective on the industrial transformation of the United States, tracing the career of Engine No. 17 as it traverses the expanding landscapes of the West.Combining historical insight with a storyteller's flair, the book explores the technical marvels and human labor that defined the railroad industry in the late 19th and early 20th centuries. From its construction in the shops to its vital role in connecting distant communities, 'The 17' serves as a symbol of progress and the relentless spirit of American engineering. Readers will find a detailed account of the challenges faced by railroad pioneers, the evolution of steam technology, and the profound impact of the iron horse on the nation's social and economic fabric.This work is an essential read for railroad enthusiasts and students of industrial history, providing an evocative look at a machine that witnessed the birth of a modern era. Through the eyes of Engine No. 17, Washburn captures the romance, grit, and enduring legacy of the rails.This work has been selected by scholars as being culturally important, and is part of the knowledge base of civilization as we know it.
