Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from A Railway Pioneer: Notes by a Civil Engineer in Europe and America From 1838 to 1888 Having been frequently asked by those closely connected with me to give some particulars of my Professional Wanderings, the following has been written in compliance with such desire. Wanderings which, with some 130,000 miles of Atlantic and Pacific voyages - equivalent to about five times around the globe - besides many thousands of land journeys in parts but little known, cannot be altogether devoid of interest even in these days of cheap excursions everywhere; so that my experiences in France, Italy, Chili, Peru, the Argentine Provinces, Brazil, Central America, Guatemala, Mexico, the United States, Canada, and the West Indies, should, perhaps, yield some items of amusement, if not of instruction, and repay for the perusal of these rough notes of one of the earliest of Railway Engineers.
