The Trans-Siberian Railway is the world's longest railroad, spanning over 9,300 miles from Moscow, Russia to Vladivostok, Russia. It is also one of the most iconic and legendary railways in the world, a symbol of both the vastness of Russia and the power of human engineering.

In Great Line For China, award-winning author and journalist Robert Dorman tells the epic story of the Trans-Siberian Railway, from its inception in the late 19th century to its present-day role as a vital artery of global trade and travel.

Dorman traces the railway's construction through some of the most inhospitable terrain on Earth, including the frozen wastes of Siberia and the rugged mountains of Mongolia. He also tells the stories of the engineers, workers, and adventurers who built and operated the railway, and the impact it has had on the people and cultures of the regions it traverses.

Great Line For China is a sweeping and authoritative history of the Trans-Siberian Railway, a must-read for anyone interested in this iconic railway, the history of Russia and China, or the epic story of human exploration.
