Brown leatherette boards with gilt lettering and graphics on the spine and front board. The endpapers depict the interior of a passenger rail car. Numerous illustrations. The DJ has no tears. The leading edges of the DJ have been taped. "The magic that for a full half century surrounded the name of The Overland Limited, derived, I think from the route it followed. Its rails led without equivocation through the illimitable spaces of what had once been the land of buffalos and Indian scouts, of the processional covered wagons and the heart's desire of the American people." 157 pages which includes an index.
