Why don't you give exact delivery time?
Delivery time is estimated on our previous experiences. We give estimations only, because we order from outside Hungary, and the delivery time mainly depends on how quickly the publisher supplies the book. Faster or slower deliveries both happen, but we do our best to supply as quickly as possible.

From award-winning author/illustrator Lynn Curlee, the fascinating visual history of the railroad is getting a new look!
MoreLong description:
All aboard for this bold and graphic visual history of trains and railroads by award-winning author-illustrator Lynn Curlee&&&8212;now with a new look!
A symbol of adventure and possibility, trains have been getting people and things to where they need to go for almost two centuries! First, steam engines hissed billowing clouds into the air, then gleaming diesel locomotives pulled boxcars, freight cars, and sleek passenger cars north, south, east, and west.
The story of how trains began barreling across the landscape is one of new machines, new inventions, new jobs, and new hopes. Railroad travel started with steam-powered wagons on a tramway and developed into a technology that would change the day-to-day life of Americans in the nineteenth and twentieth centuries&&&8212;and forever connect one coast to another.
