I don't typically review books that I read with my almost-three year old (frankly, how many different ways can you skin a Berenstain Bear?), but I'll make an exception for this one. Trains are awesome, we all know that, kids, adults, kaiju love 'em, people love to ride them and hijack them. The engines get all the play though, with the caboose getting second rail, if that.
Well, sate your thirst for all things cabooscular here. The little historical introductions to each section are succinct and charming. The real meat is the hundreds and hundreds of incredible photographs of cabooses old and new. Pretty much runs the gamut of North American caboosery. Bringing up the rear in style.
