Half a Century With a Steam Locomotive - William A. Buckbee

Descriere Half a Century With a Steam Locomotive - William A. Buckbee

\nWilliam A. Buckbee's granddaughter, Lois Flint Becker, is the only living relative who knew him. With the encouragement and help of others, she decided to publish the manuscript of his professional life. His memoir is the life of an intelligent, dedicated, and hard working individual, who lived in a by-gone era. It is not the story of only one man, but also a history of the development of the steam locomotive.\n \n\n \n\n \n* * * * * * * * * * *\n \n\n \nHalf a Century With a Steam Locomotive\n \n\n \nI would like to speak a bit about this book, Half Century with the Steam Locomotive. The book was actually written by my late husband's Grandfather. He worked for the railroad and wanted to share his knowledge of the Steam Locomotive. He spent many years gathering information and details of the locomotive. He also took many pictures of the locomotives schematics and designs from the engine, which are shown in the book. The first photo in the book is William Buckbee, the grandfather, whom wrote the original book and shared many other photos with descriptions.\n \n\n \nI think this book is a treasure which I would like to share with folks who enjoy trains. Hoping to find others as interested in this book and biography of the late William Buckbee, the grandfather whom wrote it, and enjoy the sentimental value our family shares to its publication.\n
