David F. Myrick Southern Pacific Water Lines: Marine, Bay & River Operations of the Southern Pacific System. Pasadena: Southern Pacific Historical & Technical Society, 2007. First edition. 9780965720878 132 pages. Large-format volume, measuring approximately 9" x 11.5", is bound in black cloth, with white lettering to spine. Book and dust jacket are like new. "...Suffice it to say, for over a century Southern Pacific's various water lines operated as an integral part of the system, making connection with the freight and passenger rail service and extending the company's reach into a much wider market. This volume is intended as an overview of the history, operations, legend and lore of this side of the Southern Pacific - something that has not been gathered together under one cover before - illustrated with an adequate amount of maps, photos and other material to give the reader a clearer picture of this fascinating side of the railroad's business."
