The Railroad $10.77 Bobbie Kalman, author of the acclaimed Historic Communities and Early Settler Life series, explores the action and adventure that made the West famous. In the latter part of the 19th century, more than half a million pioneers headed west to carve out a future on an unknown frontier. Some were drawn by the offer of cheap land and the promise of religious freedom while others had high hopes of finding gold. Thrilling, authentic photos and full-color illustrations recreate what life was really like for these cowboys, adventurers, and immigrants in this rough-and-ready era in our history. Authentic photographs help bring to life the early days of The Railroad, a revolution in travel that quickly replaced the wagon train as the fastest, cheapest means to reach the North American West. Children will learn: -- how the steam engine worked and how tracks were laid -- who built the railroads and how cultural differences between immigrant workers created prejudice -- what kind of jobs were performed on the train -- the different kinds of railway stations -- how first class travel differed from third class -- how Native Americans resisted the illegal invasion of the railroad into their territories |
