À propos de l'auteur

Having spent many years exploring the Grand Canyon and surrounding areas, Rudy J. Gerber was inspired to write The Railroad and the Canyon . A departure from Mr. Gerberís usual writing, the majority of which concerns the legal profession, this book charts the history of manís attempts to build railroads through the Grand Canyon. Mr. Gerber has had a long and successful legal career. He holds a Ph.D. in philosophy as well as a J.D. and has served as a professor and skilled lecturer at several universities, including Notre Dame University and St. Louis University. In 1988, Arizona governor Rose Mofford appointed Mr. Gerber to the state court of appeals, where he served for twelve years. Currently, he is a special counsel in Phoenix, Arizona. When Mr. Gerber is not working, he enjoys staying at his mountain cabin close to the train lines he wrote about in The Railroad and the Canyon . Even more than the Grand Canyon inspired him, he insists that his daughter Jennifer was his ultimate inspiration.
