- Abstract
- Pertains to a pictorial work that aimed to capture the mountain section of the Canadian Pacific Railway. The author, Donald Bain, argued that the mountain section of the Canadian Pacific Railway, while the most interesting, had been neglected the most. The photographs in the publication had been captured by Nicholas Morant, and were compiled in the hopes of appealing to railway enthusiasts.
