It was the sixties. The decade of Vietnam protests, and riots, of the Beatles and the senseless deaths of a president. But to those of us who were children in our tiny south Louisiana village, those events were barely background noise. Our rural lives were predictable, and for the most part, uneventful. In my teens I resented all of it and vowed I would leave as early as I could, and I did. Now as an adult somewhere past middle age, I have acquired respect, insight, and a genuine longing for that uncomplicated life. These essays capture specific moments of my childhood during that era and hopefully they will stir a recollection of similar events in the mind of the reader. Events they might otherwise have forgotten.

In 1836, Abraham Lincoln and Stephen Douglas agreed on one thing: Illinois needed railroads. Over the next fifty years, the state became the nation's railroad hub, with Chicago at its center. Speculators, greed, growth, and regulation followed as the railroad industry consumed unprecedented amounts of capital and labor. A nationwide market resulted, and the Windy City became the site of opportunities and challenges that remain to this day. In this first-of-its-kind history, full of entertaining anecdotes and colorful characters, Simon Cordery describes the explosive growth of Illinois railroads and its impact on America. Cordery shows how railroading in Illinois influenced railroad financing, the creation of a national economy, and government regulation of business. Cordery's masterful chronicle of rail development in Illinois from 1837 to 2010 reveals how the state's expanding railroads became the foundation of the nation's rail network.
