Roger Grant, author of Follow the Flag: A History of the Wabash Railroad CompanyIn the time of jet airplanes and interstate highways, the Internet and ecommerce, it is difficult to comprehend and appreciate the impact that railroads had on Iowa's landscapein terms not just of transportation service and economic development, but of political, social, and cultural linkage as well.

Pioneer lines penetrated the interior from established Mississippi River communities during the state's early railroad era, and later opened up huge tracts for agricultural opportunity as well as urban development.A wideranging survey of Iowa's railroad experience, Steel Trails of Hawkeyeland offers a snapshot of a fascinating and critically important element in the state's history, and emphasizes the tight symbiotic relationship between Iowa and its railways. Packed with more than 250 photographs, this is a thorough and engaging book.
