Lake Tahoe lies along the California-Nevada border. Its first railroads were logging roads, deliver- ing mine timbers and cordwood from mills at lakeside to the Comstock mines. Steamboats plied the waters to move people and log booms. As logging declined, tourists flocked in. A narrow- gauge railroad was built, to bring tourists from the Southern Pacific to the lakeshore, and new steamboats carried travelers around the lake. Te story is a vivid part of Lake Tahoe’s history. 256 pages, 294 photos, 55 maps and graphics, rosters, bibliography, index. Price: $60
