The volume treats of "The Genesis of the Railroad System," "Accidents," and the "Present Railroad Problem." The author has made himself the acknowledged authority on this group of subjects. If his book goes only to those who are interested in the ownership, the use, or the administration of railroads, it is sure of a large circle of readers. "A most interesting and important work."--_Railway World._ "Characterized by broad, progressive, liberal ideas."--_Railway Review._ "The entire conclusions are of great value."--_N.Y. Journal of Commerce._ End of the Project Gutenberg EBook of Notes on Railroad Accidents, by Charles Francis Adams
