Description

This volume conveys the excitement and romance of streamlined train travel on the Santa Fe and shows how the railroad used the landscapes and Indian culture of the American Southwest to promote travel on its famous trains. The text is extensively illustrated with color and b&w illustrations of the interiors of cars, the art collection of the Santa Fe railroad, depots still standing in New Mexico, several of the Harvey House hotels, and the original advertising materials used to lure travelers west. One chapter deals with the silent film stars who stopped off in Albuquerque as the train was being serviced, providing a nostalgic look at a lost, glamorous era. Published for New Mexico Magazine by the University of New Mexico Press. Annotation c. Book News, Inc., Portland, OR (booknews.com) Read More
