This massive and beautifully bound presentation style book has been spared no expense in its construction, with every publisher's attention paid to fine detailing. Richly illustrated throughout with B&W and color photos, many never before published. Bi-lingual, Chinese, and English. For anyone looking for a unique gift for a railroad history buff, or those interested in 20th-century Chinese architecture, this is a rare purchase opportunity. Additional descriptions and photos are available on request.

From the Preface: "Architecture seems like a history book of wood ad stones. The development of modern architecture in North Chine was indispensable with a railway, that is, the Railway of Chinese Eastern Provinces."

"They started operation in 1903."

"With a history of over half a century, the CER had played a pivotal role in Chinese railway history, architectural history, and cultural development process."
