722 Miles by Clifton Hood
For the subway's centennial the author supplies a new foreward explaining that now, after a century, we can see more clearly than ever that this rapid transit system is among the twentieth century's greatest urban achievements.
"A clear, perceptive and carefully researched study of this engineering feat and the ways in which the subway led to an expansion of the metropolitan area" - Publishers Weekly "One of the best urban-transportation histories to come down the tracks in a long time." - The Sciences"
