I visited Virginia City a few months ago and rode on a restored V & T train. It was a lot of fun. I wanted learn more about the history surrounding the train. This is an excellent book about the Virginia & Truckee Railroad. In fact, every "Images of America" book I have purchased has been excellent. I have around 15 of this series now and will be purchasing more. When I am looking for a history of something specific in the United States, this is the first book series I go to. I hope they keep expanding the series.
The book is very comprehensive and descriptive of the V&t history. I grew up two blocks from the V&T roundhouse in Reno and my mother took me along for it's last trip to Carson City. The book is very complete and brought back some forgotten memories of the old right of way and out buildings that stood for a long time after. Excellent history of it's service. Restoration of the route between Virginia City and Carson City now provides rides using the old engines. Worth a visit.
Gave me some of the info I wanted for my writing but not a lot
A great gift, and one that is certainly enjoyed!
Great in-depth telling of a proud and sadly long departed piece of Comstock history.
I am a big fan and supporter of the Virginia & Truckee Railroad - the famous Nevada shortline that purportedly hauled the equivalent combined weight of all of its' track, locomotives, and rolling stock in silver bars during the heyday of the Comstock silver strike that it was constructed to service. The V&TRR was noted not only for the beauty & quality of its' picturesque Victorian period steam engines and passenger cars, back in the day, but also for the fact that so many examples of its' 1800's vintage equipment have survived intact into our modern era. The railroad and the men who created it, and profited from the wealth of the Comstock Lode that it hauled, are equally entwined in the colorful history of the American west.The story of the Virginia & Truckee Railroad has been well chronicled in many books over the years by a variety of authors who share a passion for the diminutive rail line that borders on romantic love! Railway historians and V&T 'addicts' such as: Lucius Beebe, Ted Wurm, and Mallory Hope Farell have all produced previous paeans to their favorite railroad in lavish volumes of photos and purple prose that cover every angle of the story. With so much excellent coverage already in print it is nice to be able to report that the latest monograph on the subject brings still more new and interesting visuals and stories of the fabled rail line to light. Much of the credit for this achievement is due to the background and credentials of the book's author: Stephen Drew. Mr. Drew is a well respected railway historian, now affiliated with the California State Railway Museum (which possesses and displays several of the V&T's restored jewel-like locomotives) and he has had a long personal relationship with the V&T. He brings his scholarship and unique knowledge and appreciation for the subject to this slim volume and provides an excellent new addition to the roster of V&TRR books.The physical size of the book is relatively modest, but the printing quality and photo reproduction are excellent throughout so the small size does not seem an issue. The format of the book presents most of the information in the form of 'captions' accompanying a myriad of archival photographs. The images provide examples of all aspects of the V&T throughout its' history, including sections on the Comstock mines & mills, the Lake Tahoe based lumber and flume-ing industry, and many of the notable personages involved with the railway. People (such as myself) who may be familiar with the other, previously noted, publications on the railroad will doubtless find that some of the photographic images have been reproduced elsewhere before - but - there are also MANY images that are previously un-published... definitely much fresh material to be enjoyed! A most complete overview is provided that should satisfy both V&T 'fanatics' and those less familiar with the story. Personally I'm very pleased with this new edition and would recommend it to anyone interested in the subject matter.
This book is a photo essay of the history of the V&T RR from its start in 1868, to its abandonment in 1949, to what it is today. It is full of great and rare photos, several of which I have never seen before. For anyone interested in the history of the V&T, is well worth the money.
