What vivid scenes you paint with words. I can hear every single grunt, see every hard worker and can picture the country being built...Things have changed a lot over the years.

Gritty and fun to read. Did you ever hear Gordon Lightfoot's

"Canadian Railroad Trilogy?"  It sounds a lot like this, though more upbeat.

You never disappoint, always something beyond the print to think about. Can you tell us anything about your book yet?
