This comprehensive history of the Spokane, Portland & Seattle Railway gives readers excellent insight into railroading in the Pacific Northwest in the first half of the 20th century. The book includes an oversight of the Hill/Harriman struggle for control of access to the lucrative Willamette Valley, Columbia Basin and Puget Sound markets and follows the SP & S from construction, maintenance, day-to-day operation, through to its acquisition by the Burlington Northern. Includes locomotive rosters from 1905-1970 and information on stations for 1910, 1940 and 1970. Illustrated throughout with black and white photos. With numerous maps. 280 pages.
