Description
On May 10, 1869, two great lengths of railroad track were linked, and America became united. Until that moment, it had been one nation divided by great distance. However, with the promise of the wide-open west and the excitement of the Gold Rush in California, fast transportation across the country became vital. In this volume of "The American Saga", Tim McNeese tells the story of America's rapid westward expansion and the railroads that stitched the country together.
