Great pictorial history of the Great Northern Railway of James J. Hill, often called "The Empire Builder". James Jerome Hill (September 16, 1838 â May 29, 1916), was a Canadian-American railroad executive. He was the chief executive officer of a family of lines headed by the Great Northern Railway, which served a substantial area of the Upper Midwest, the northern Great Plains, and Pacific Northwest. Because of the size of this region and the economic dominance exerted by the Hill lines, Hill became known during his lifetime as "The Empire Builder". The Great Northern was the first transcontinental built without public money and just a few land grants, and was one of the few transcontinental railroads not to go bankrupt. Loaded with vintage B&W photographs. Highly recommended for any Railroad fan. ISBN-087564502X. LOC SSM-01
