Paperback. Zustand: New. Print on Demand. This book insightfully examines the historical conflict between Nebraska's railroad industry and the citizens of the state. Beginning in the late 19th century, the book traces how railroads sought to control the transportation sector and wielded their power aggressively, while the public demanded protection from their dominance. The author chronicles the establishment of regulatory bodies, the lengthy legal battles that ensued regarding rate reductions, and the eventual outcome that saw the railroads concede to public pressure. The book highlights the critical role of the state's farmers in driving these changes, as they sought to protect their livelihoods and ensure fair markets for their products. Through extensive research and analysis, this book provides a comprehensive understanding of the struggle for control in the railroad industry and its lasting impact on Nebraska's economic and political landscape.
