Book Description
McGee & Nixon's lens & anecdotes captured more than the NORTHERN PACIFIC in the 'great' years of railroading. This volume, companion to THE NORTHERN PACIFIC of McGee & Nixon, also gives the reader a view into the Great Northern Railway; Union Pacific; more of the Northern Pacific Ry.; Spokane, Portland & Seattle Ry., as well as the Milwaukee Road, as they served the Pacific Northwest states in the 1940's & 1950's - steam, diesel & electric! Historic photographs of the majestic trains that built the Pacific Northwest & then were gone, never to return. With 38 color plates showing the pride & glamour of those days for a total of 321 large photographs.

Book Description
Carlos Arnaldo Schwantes has revised and expanded the entire work, which is still the most comprehensive and balanced history of the region. This edition contains significant additional material on early mining in the Pacific Northwest, sea routes to Oregon in the early discovery and contact period, the environment of the region, the impact of the Klondike gold rush, and politics since 1945. Recent environmental controversies, such as endangered salmon runs and the spotted owl dispute, have been addressed, as has the effect of the Cold War on the region’s economy. The author has also expanded discussion of the roles of women and minorities and updated statistical information.
