Atlantic Northern & Southern An Iowa Twilight Railroad

Author: H. Roger Grant (Clemson University)

Abstract

H. ROGER GRANT examines the rise and decline of an important twilight railroad in Southwest Iowa, the Atlantic Northern & Southern. Grant's work reveals the complex and occasionally competing interests that contributed to the development of the line. In a saga that ranges from hamlets like Grant and Kimballton to cities like Des Moines and even to international railroad syndicates across the Atlantic, Grant demonstrates the importance of railroads, even in the early twentieth century.
