This Golden Spike book is a concise narrative conveying the complex story of the construction of this first transcontinental railroad. On May 10, 1869, at Promontory Summit, Utah Territory, the East and West coasts united for the first time in American history. As two iconic trains arrived head-to-head, the last spike was pounded into the ground. Exploring both the glory that accompanied the railroad’s construction and the grave injustices perpetrated in its wake, this account traces the rise and eventual decline of Promontory Summit, and finally its designation as a national historical park.
