  • Shed in the History of the Land Office. Although Describing the 1830S As a Period of "Changing Ethical Standards,"
    200 BOOK REVIEWS APRIL shed in the history of the Land Office. Although describing the 1830s as a period of "changing ethical standards," Rohrbough fails to ade- quately analyze those standards in a manner which would shed further light on the vexingly enigmatic Jacksonian period. The Specie Circular and the ensuing panic of 1837 marked the decline of Land Office business as a dominant force in American life. After 1841, sales of public land sank to a low of $1,500,000 from a high of $7,000,000 in 1837. Thereafter, "a new world was emerging" which was urban and industrial. Responding to the changing American environment, Con- gress paid less heed to the "colorful defenses" of the squatters in the halls of the Capitol and listened with growing infatuation to the whistles of industry. Unfortunately, Rohrbough fails to graphically portray the "colorful defenses" of those squatters. Those interested in administrative history will find The Land Office Business to be an indispensable reference work for the history of the Land Office legislation and the details of procedures used during the heyday of the Land Office. Scholars of the early national period and scholars of social history willfind this book lacking in insightful presentation of the role of the Land Office in the daily lives of the average settler. West Liberty State College Kenneth R. Nodyne West Virginia ViewingPennsylvania Trolleys. By Kenneth C. Springirth. (4720 Cliff Drive, Erie, Pa. Privately printed. Pp. 177. Illustrations. $7.50.) Today there is only one trolley line remaining in all of south- western Pennsylvania, yet, surprisingly, only about forty years ago the area was served with a network of interurban trolley connections.

This is the carefully annotated study of a good many of the important large railroads of the United States complete within their own files, these to be found within the official state of incorporation. Here will be included page references to the frequently huge number of small short-line roads that usually wound up by being “taken in” to the larger and expending Class II and I roads. Some of these files, such as the New York Central or the Pennsylvania Railroad are very big themselves. Michigan, Wisconsin, Oregon, and Washington are large because the many lumber railroads have been extensively studied out.
