Summary: In this Richly illustrated history, the massive stone terminals, the glass and metal sheds, the conservative and pioneering stations of past and present are studied from both architectural and historical viewpoints. Close analysis has enabled the author to formulate a "railroad Style, ' and to integrate it with the main trends of nineteenth-and twentieth-century architecture.
