PUBLICATIONS.
MARSHALL M. KIRKMAN’S BOOKS ON RAILROAD TOPICS.
DO YOU WANT TO BECOME A RAILROAD MAN
IF YOU DO, THE BOOKS DESCRIBED BELOW POINT THE WAY.
The most promising field for men of talent and ambition at the present
day is the railroad service. The pay is large in many instances, while
the service is continuous and honorable. Most of our railroad men began
life on the farm. Of this class is the author of the accompanying books
descriptive of railway operations, who has been connected continuously
with railroads as a subordinate and officer for 27 years. He was brought
up on a farm, and began railroading as a lad at $7 per month. He has
written a number of standard books on various topics connected with the
organization, construction, management and policy of railroads. These
books are of interest not only to railroad men but to the general reader
as well. They are indispensable to the student. They present every phase
of railroad life, and are written in an easy and simple style that both
interests and instructs. The books are as follows:
“RAILWAY EXPENDITURES—THEIR EXTENT,
OBJECT AND ECONOMY.”—A Practical
Treatise on Construction and Operation.
In Two Volumes, 850 pages. $4.00
“HAND BOOK OF RAILWAY EXPENDITURES.”—Practical
