Missoula, Montana, 1884
It was a time of vanishing cultures and rising empires, a time when there was much that needed to be done - much that could be done, and in the end, it didn't matter who did it.
The Rail Queen weaves through the awakening of the American railroad as it knits together the strands of empire from Atlantic to Pacific even as every new mile of track speeds the vanishing of the frontier it seeks to exploit. It was a brief age when anything was possible, even for a young schoolgirl with an extraordinary dream.
