The Railway, The Farmer And The Public is a book written by Edward Atkinson in 1885. The book is a detailed analysis of the relationship between the railway, the farmer, and the public, and how their interests intersect and sometimes conflict with each other. Atkinson discusses the impact of railways on agriculture, transportation, and commerce, and how they have changed the economic landscape of America. He also explores the benefits and drawbacks of railway expansion, such as the displacement of small farmers and the rise of monopolies. The book provides insights into the history of railways and their impact on society, making it a valuable resource for historians, economists, and anyone interested in the development of transportation infrastructure.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
