For the first time, we have a detailed explanation of exactly how C&O developed the Newport News piers and yards, with chronological detail on the construction of each pier and yard, and how it all tied together. I learned more about Newport News from this text that I can say, and it cleared up many things about which I have been wondering all my life. I cannot recommend it highly enough. Most of the photos are taken from the early 1970s and 1980s, but Kurt uses some great postcard views from his collection to show older facilities. Hardbound 128 pages
