About this film
LibriVox recording of Chronicles of Canada Volume 32 - The Railway Builders: A Chronicle of Overland Highways by Oscar D. Skelton. Read in English by Scott Foster; Doug Sheppard; Maria Kasper 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 For further information, including links to online text, reader information, RSS feeds, CD cover or other formats (if available), please go to the LibriVox catalog page for this recording.
