| Publisher Description: Steam Trains were cutting-edge weapons of war in the 19th century - and all the major powers were figuring out how to deploy them. The Europeans learned how to move troops by train. The Americans - how to fight on rail cars. The British, meanwhile, found they could dominate an empire from the tracks. |
