The strong factual narratives in this richly illustrated book, already more detailed than state-adopted textbooks, are sprinkled with school-safe Web links to carefully vetted supplemental information.
The book by itself will stretch the minds of young historians; add the element of Web research, then encourage your students to compare and contrast the printed and online accounts. The narrative examines the building of the railroad, the dangers involved, those who supported the railroad, and the impact the railroad had on American life.
