Dust jacket protected in a mylar cover. A fine copy of the first printing. "John Sedgwick recounts the decade-long fight between General William J. Palmer, the Civil War hero leading the 'little family' of his Rio Grande, coming down from Denver, hoping to showcase the majesty of the Rockies, and William Barstow Strong, the hard-nosed manager of the corporate-minded Santa Fe, venturing west from Kansas.
