Iron Empires: Robber Barons, Railroads, and the Making of Modern America by Michael Hiltzik

4.0

This is interesting. It's not a quick read because there's a lot of info tightly packed into it. I wouldn't go as far as saying it should be required reading, but it is interesting info that is important to the history of the US, and thus seems like more people should know at least some of our story as it relates to our rail lines and how vital they are/were to our everyday lives. Most history buffs will likely enjoy this.

I really appreciate the ARC for review!!
