All the romance of early railroading in northern New England pervades
Boston & Maine in the 19th Century. This fascinating journey begins
in the 1830s with an 8-mile line that just kept growing. By the end of
the century, Boston & Maine was traveling over 2,324 miles of track.
This first pictorial history of the Boston & Maine explores the
heyday of an enterprising railroad. Using spectacular images, most of
which have never before been published, the book takes us along scenic
stretches of Massachusetts, New Hampshire, and Maine.
