About this product
Product Information
During the American Civil War, railroads provided considerable logistical support, but locomotives and rolling stock also served in tactical roles not just in rear areas, but also at the fronts and in veritable no-man's-lands. Mars Gets New Chariots addresses how, after being absent for centuries, fighting vehicles returned to modern warfare. While much of their work was utilitarian, their missions ranged from stealthy reconnaissance to close combat. Riding humble handcars or powerful locomotives and trains, Federals and Confederates alike exploited these new war chariots' speed, mobility, and firepower in the Railroad War, a struggle for vital logistical arteries. Other railborne vehicles fought in combat ranging from skirmishes to set-piece battles.

I understand that the book I purchased was on $8 and change and was listed as acceptable but when you ask for the book to be padded securely so it does not get damaged during shipping and they just throw it in a loose poly bag that's just not right. My book arrived at my door ripped and mashed. When I messaged the seller I get I'm so sorry can we offer you a partial refund? A partial refund on a book that's now garbage? No thank you. Seller did nothing else to try and make it right.
