Average Reviews:
(More customer reviews)I have not just read, but bought, every volume in the Railroad Color History series since its inception, and this is the first one I have been dissatisfied with. It is simply not a history of the Chessie system: it describes the formation of the system, but that's all: the rest of the book is just a topographical description of the routes which largely covers ground already dealt with in previous books in the series.
Production values are also not up to scratch. In particular, there's a large map that purports to show the components of the system but is actually nothing of the sort. One wonders how a bloomer like this got through the production process. There are also more literals than usual, especially in captions. The saving grace, as aways in this series, is the quality of the photos, but that's not enough to compensate for the other deficiencies.
