Part of a two-volume set first published in 1962/63, this book offers a history of the railroads of Nevada and Eastern California, as well as the sites and personalities encountered along the routes. This volume covers the varied and spectacular geography of Southern Nevada and Eastern California.

Valuable as these volumes are in relation to railroad operations in Nevada and California, their usefulness as authoritative reference sources embraces a much broader scope. Railroads of Nevada and Eastern California is as much a history of the region as it is a study of the railroads. The principal mines and mills and their production are scrupulously detailed, together with the personalities who created them.

David F. Myrick (1918-2011) was the author of several books about western history and western railroads, including the three volumes of Railroads of Nevada and Eastern California. He lived and wrote primarily in Santa Barbara, California.
