3 stele, bazat pe 1 voturi

Overnight settlements, better known as Hell on Wheels, sprang up as the transcontinental railroad crossed Nebraska and Wyoming.

They brought opportunity not only for legitimate business but also for gamblers, land speculators, prostitutes, and thugs.

Dick Kreck tells their stories along with the heroic individuals who managed, finally, to create permanent towns in the interior West.
