Two veteran railroaders begin their history with a review of the coming of railroad service to the Pacific Northwest, but quickly move into details of the construction, operation and economic impact of the former Great Northern Railway's "W-O (Wenatchee-Oroville) branch line, a line that became one of its highest revenue branches. Unlike many books on railroading, this book does not consist only of photos of trains and railroad station buildings. Instead, it is a serious study of what was required to support the movement of thousands of cars of apples, lumber, grain and minerals to market centers to the east. Readers will be impressed by the authors' focus on the strong ties the railroad company developed with the parties who had a stake in building the economy on this part of the GN's system. -- Back cover.

The unthinkable thoughts and depraved deeds of people, nature, and the seriously supernatural are voyeuristically exposed with an amazing alliterative allure in Barbara Eck Tosi’s SCARY. This psychotically charged collection of nightmarish narratives unfolds in refreshingly rhythmic rhymes. Overdosed with injections of spine-splintering sordidness, SCARY dares you to experience its macabre and maniacal madness. At the mercy of monsters that maliciously manipulate their minds, these contorted and calamitous characters dance deliberately and deliriously across pages steeped in insanity, pain, isolation, and fear. The warped worlds of these peculiar and perverse psychotics are saturated in sinister streams of consciousness. Peaceful narratives periodically penetrate the pathetic preponderance of pain with their sacred salutations of sanity and salvation. Have you a penchant for pursuing the psyche’s darkest demons and deepest divides? This deliciously disturbing collection of shockingly scary vignettes will find you double-locking your windows, triple-bolting your doors, and exponentially increasing the wattage of your living room lights. In an unusual, enticing, and entertaining way, SCARY feverishly frightens those brave enough to climb its hyperbolic heights.
