  • Publisher : Univ of California Press
  • Release : 2005-05-16
  • ISBN : 0520940865
  • Pages : 640 pages

Download or read book Sunset Limited written by Richard J. Orsi and published by Univ of California Press. This book was released on 2005-05-16 with total page 640 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The only major U.S. railroad to be operated by westerners and the only railroad built from west to east, the Southern Pacific acquired a unique history and character. It also acquired a reputation, especially in California, as a railroad that people loved to hate. This magisterial history tells the full story of the Southern Pacific for the first time, shattering myths about the company that have prevailed to this day. A landmark account, Sunset Limited explores the railroad's development and influence—especially as it affected land settlement, agriculture, water policy, and the environment—and offers a new perspective on the tremendous, often surprising, role the company played in shaping the American West. Based on his unprecedented and extensive research into the company's historical archives, Richard Orsi finds that, contrary to conventional understanding, the Southern Pacific Company identified its corporate well-being with population growth and social and economic development in the railroad's hinterland. As he traces the complex and shifting intersections between corporate and public interest, Orsi documents the railroad's little-known promotion of land distribution, small-scale farming, scientific agriculture, and less wasteful environmental practices and policies—including water conservation and wilderness and recreational parklands preservation. Meticulously researched, lucidly written, and judiciously balanced, Sunset Limited opens a new window onto the American West in a crucial phase of its development and will forever change our perceptions of one of the largest and most important western corporations in the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries.

Book excerpt: Westfield Volume II covers the history of the city from the mid-nineteenth century through the late twentieth century, and highlights the accomplishments of its citizens. Locally famous Westfield residents like Joseph Buell Ely and Herbert W. Kittredge are spotlighted, as well as less well-known but equally significant contributors to the civic and social history of the city. The development of the city's infrastructure is chronicled, and important events in the community's development are illustrated. Many images in this volume were submitted by present and former residents of Westfield in response to the authors' request for vintage images. In poring through these vast submissions, authors Cramer and Ackerman have produced a second book that is destined to bring back memories and enliven interest in Westfield's fascinating past.
