Chronicles of Canada Volume 32 - The Railway Builders: A Chronicle of Overland Highways

Oscar D. Skelton

When the pace of railroad construction slackened in 1914, Canada had achieved a remarkable position in the railway world. Only five other countries—the United States, Russia, Germany, India, and, by a small margin, France—possessed a greater mileage; and, relatively to population, none came anywhere near her. This is the story of how Canada became a country stitched together by rail. - Summary by TriciaG Author - Oscar D. Skelton. Narrator - LibriVox Community. Published Date - Thursday, 19 January 2023.
