The Newcomen Society
AMERICAN NEWCOMEN, through the years, has honored numerous railway systems both in the United States of America and in Canada; and has honored the memories of men whose vision and initiative and leadership and driving force have made possible great rail networks and transportation systems. Incalculable are the contributions that these railways have made to material wealth and prosperity. Natural resources have been enabled to be developed; communications and travel and transport have made new strides; wide regions have been opened up; national security has been promoted; a nation has been brought together into a united entity. Such a New-comen manuscript is this, dealing with one of the most brilliantly constructive minds that America ever produced! It is a recital that stimulates imagination and rivets human interest. It will come to be recognized as adding another chapter to the History of Rail Transportation in America.
AMERICAN NEWCOMEN, always interested in the memories of brilliant leaders, their lives, their work, and their enduring influence, takes satisfaction in this dramatically interesting Newcomen manuscript, which gives such clear and understanding analysis of the life and work and times of one of the greatest "railroad builders" that America ever produced. It is a manuscript that will remain valuable through the years to come, giving as it does an insight into the life and character and ambitions and achievements of a great American, who believed in America, who worked for America, and to whose memory America truly is indebted!
