After the Civil War, it was the century's most transformative chain of events. Beginning in 1842 with a visionary's dream to span the continent with a single railroad line, Empire Express captures three dramatic decades in which the United States effectively doubled in size, fought three wars, and began to discover a new national identity. Culminating in the driving of the Golden Spike in the Utah desert in 1869, which touched off a frenzy of celebration. the narrative ends in 1873 in Washington under the Capitol rotunda, with the crushing fall of a popular politician and the exposure of a powerful, hidden railroad lobby ~ a scandal, which, for half a year, dominated the press and the country's imagination. Told from the points of view of its participants, Empire Express's uniquely American cast includes: self~made entrepreneurs such as the Union Pacific's Thomas Durant or the Central Pacific's Collis Huntington, who built railroad empires across the West while spinning webs of influence all over Washington. D.C. ~engineers such as Theodore Judah, who discovered a route across the 7,OOO~foot~high California Sierra in the footsteps of the tragic Donner party, and Grenville Dodge, who forged a path across the Rockies while being pursued by an Indian war party. ~tribal leaders such as Spotted ail and Red Cloud, who alternated between conciliation and defiance as the soldiers and locomotives heralded the onrush of farmers, ranchers, prospectors, and townsfolk. ~more than twenty~five thousand nameless laborers whose backbreaking work made the railroad possible, especially the Irish~most fresh off the Civil War battlefields~and the Chinese. ~era~defining figures such as President Lincoln, Generals Grant, Sherman, and Sheridan, and Mark Twain and Walt Whitman. Masterful storytelling and fourteen years of groundbreaking and meticulous research are brought to bear in this monumental account of a pivotal era. Empire Express draws on original sources as no previous chronicle has done~thousands of pages of handwritten letters, diaries, and telegrams, and an array of biographical and historical works. This extraordinary narrative summons an astonishing gallery of historical voices to give new dimension not only to this epic endeavor but also to the culture, political struggles, and social conflicts of an unforgettable period in American history.

Hardcover. Condition: Fine. Dust Jacket Condition: Fine. 1st Edition. 1st Printing. Signed. 260 pages. Published in 1999. The author's second novel. The First Hardcover Edition. Precedes and should not be confused with all other subsequent editions. Published in a small and limited first print run as a hardcover original only. The First Edition is now scarce. Presents Peter Landesman's "Blood Acre". A brilliant follow-up novel by the widely-acclaimed author of "The Raven". Exquisitely written, this is a "genuine tour-de-force, an apocalyptic murder mystery that demands to be read in a single setting" (Times Literary Supplement). The novel has been compared to Malcolm Lowry's "Under The Volcano" (by James McConkey) and to William Styron's work by Stewart O'Nan, who asserts that what Landesman has pulled off is a more poetic version of the hard-boiled thriller: "The soft-boiled thriller, where every wound weeps, every memory stings, and every dream festers" (Stewart O'Nan). Now a full-fledged Hollywood screenwriter, Landesman is a brilliant American writer with a solid cult following, who deserves to be read by a much wider audience. An absolute "must-have" title for Peter Landesman collectors. This copy is very prominently and beautifully signed in black ink-pen on the title page by Peter Landesman. It is signed directly on the page itself, not on a tipped-in page. This title is a contemporary classic. This is one of few such signed copies of the First Hardcover Edition/First Printing still available online and is in especially fine condition: Clean, crisp, and bright. Please note: Copies available online have serious flaws, are subsequent printings, or are remainder-marked. This is surely an accessible and lovely alternative. A scarce signed copy thus. Winner of the Sue Kaufman Prize for First Fiction from the American Academy of Arts and Letters in 1995 for "The Raven". One of the most brilliant American writers of our time. A fine copy.

Adept and fascinating novel revolving around the Lindbergh kidnapping. "Explores the possibility that convicted kidnapper Bruno Hauptmann had an accomplice. This psychopath is alive today and living in Minneapolis. Now his victims are Rick Beanblossom, investigative journalist, and Andrea Labore, TV anchor. Local color abounds, exposing Minneapolis' sordid past as well as its pristine present. Thayer flashes back to reporter Grover Mudd (Rick's counterpart or previous life), investigating the original Lindbergh story. Grover's world is in sharp language, reminiscent of Cagney films sans Hollywood censor. Thayer does not step over the line, maintaining the integrity of the Beanblossom plot" (Denise Blank).
