The article should include an external link to the following site, which responds to many passages in the book that its authors deems inaccurate or misleading. http://cprr.org/Museum/Books/Comments-Ambrose.html. (This is my first edit, and I don't know how to add the link myself.) —Preceding unsigned comment added by 206.188.56.154 ( talk) 19:59, 1 January 2008 (UTC)
The link you've provided, has been added, i've checked it before placing it on the article just in case, and it seems fine to place on the external links. →Yun-Yuu zhan→ 20:36, 1 January 2008 (UTC)
That's "Central Pacific Railroad", right? (For people, especially non-North Americans, who come here without prior knowledge on the matter that's NOT clear. It could also be "Canadian Pacific Railway" or any number of things.) If so, shouldn't it be "CPRR"? I then would suggest replacing "the CP" with "the CPRR", the first instance in this hyperlinked form: "the CPRR". Someone who's positive that my assumptions are correct, please change it. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Ὁ οἶστρος ( talk • contribs) 19:26, 15 May 2010 (UTC)
I am assuming this is where I would write this response - I am still new to the editing of Wikipedia - you are indeed correct, the original author is referring to the 'Central Pacific Railroad'. I will change this immediately. I am actually going to re-read this book now and I will re-write the article when I am finished.

I have completely rewritten this article removing the unsourced, highly POV anonymous "review" that formerly appeared here and replaced that with a well sourced discussion of the many inaccuracies, misquotes, and false conclusions which have been well documented as appearing in the book.
