Synopsis
Railroad Ferries of the Hudson and the Stories of a Deckhand is a complete business, economic, technical, and social history of the ferryboats that were once operated across the Hudson River to Manhattan from New Jersey and that were owned and operated by various railroad companies in conjunction with their commuter and long-distance passenger trains.

    Item arrived as stated in used but good condition. It was a great price for used. A new copy would have cost a lot more. It was shipped out fast and arrived in secure envelope. Seller did a great job with this entire transaction. I’m very happy with seller and would order from them again. Thank you seller, great job. A+. JL

    There was a mixup during packaging where a paperback copy was picked and shipped for a hard cover copy that was ordered. I asked the seller about it and they honestly replied that the mistake was on their end. A full refund for the item was sent immediately and I will not hesitate to order more from ZBK. Very responsive and they stand behind their items and make good on any issues.

    Super Fast Shipping! Other than a little sticker damage the book was as described, new and pristine. Triple A plus! Given the opportunity I will buy again. *** Buyers on eBay; the seller should not be held responsible for USPS issues. Lately they've been slow as heck, and irresponsible. *** I ordered something and it took 21 day to arrive, when I received the item was missing and I got half a box.
