20th Century

Plot

Written to help celebrate the 60th anniversary of the 20th Century Limited, this book is a loving tribute to the train in all eras, from the earliest steam days through the glory years of streamlined elegance and then into the diesel era. Beebe knew and loved the train and its sophistication and was the perfect author to capture its beauty. Illustrated throughout with black and white photos. With decorative end papers showing route map. 180 pages with index (which is practically a Who's Who of famous names who rode the train).
