The Richmond Locomotive Works was born out of the ashes of the evacuation fires at the end of the Civil War. The company grew, despite numerous financial and personnel difficulties, to become one of the city's single-largest employers, an industrial behemoth that provided livelihoods to thousands upon thousands of men over the course of its existence. Over a span of sixty years, the facility produced a myriad of industrial products, including thousands of steam locomotives that traversed rails throughout the United States and across the world. Historian Nathan Vernon Madison provides, for the first time since its closure in 1927, a thorough and complete history of this Richmond institution.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Nathan Madison\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1467151793\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781467151795\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e History Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 04\/10\/2023\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 192\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.93lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.00h x 6.11w x 0.42d","brand":"Nathan Madison","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":44133269831935,"sku":"9781467151795","price":23.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_aae19c7c-0c02-456b-bc6d-2c5c18a8ffdc.jpg?v=1687485095","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/the-richmond-locomotive-machine-nathan-madison-9781467151795","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
