Good book!
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 15 years ago
While this book may be aimed more at older children, I found it to be a fascinating look at one of the biggest "digs" in this country. Beautifully done illustrations complement the text to give a good picture of the agony it must have been to build this subway through granite! I recommend it; there may not be anything else like it on the market.
