The Library of Congress CiP note "Reprint of the 1950 edition...by Rydal Press, Santa Fe" is grossly erroneous. The original (of 1950) is much expanded and to the original have been added a large number of photos. This is a reprint of the revised edition of 1979. It contains Bollinger's deeply informed, gossipy, fictionalized account of the conception, development, and operation of the remarkably ambitious route that attempted a line directly west from Denver to Salt Lake City (the current route of Amtrak's California Zephyr). A good history of western transportation. Annotation copyright Book News, Inc. Portland, Or.
