Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This informative book deals with the history of a subway system built in Boston, Massachusetts. The subway system in Boston is significant because it was the first modern subway system constructed in the United States. The author explains that there was a need to relieve street traffic congestion, but ultimately the project was designed to connect Boston with neighboring communities, which was completed in 1897. The book includes descriptions of the companies that were involved in the creation of the subway, the legal and financial challenges of the project, and the technological innovations that were developed. The author also presents an account of the public perception of the project and the impact it had on the city of Boston. It gives the reader a comprehensive view of the development, construction, and early operation of this important transportation system.
