1996"The GTP ran from Winnipeg via Edmonton and the Yellowhead Pass to Prince Rupert and was built to challenge the primacy of the Canadian Pacific Railway. The 1,500-km British Columbia line, built at great cost over some of the country's most rugged terrain, was completed in 1914, but traffic fell far short of company expectations and this contributed to the collapse of the GTP in 1919. This failure is examined here, with focus on the problems of the BC line. Leonard argues that 'a thousand blunders' by company managers were primarily responsible for one of the greatest failures in Canadian entrepreneurial history. Richly detailed and thoroughly documented, this study makes an important contribution to the fields of railway and business history, as well as to the study of the history of northern British Columbia." - half-title.

Single sheet printed in green on both sides 7 5/8 21 inches accordion folded into six panels 7 5/8 3 1/2 inches. No other copy located. Dating of this brochure. The railroad operated from 1898 until 1945; it was nationalized by the Mexican Government in 1925. The owner of record was Louis T. Haggin the son of American mogul James Ben Ali Haggin who was a great friend and business associate of the railroad’s General Manager the colorful Gen. John Baptist Frisbie. Frisbie died in 1909; the General Manager listed on this pamphlet is his son Luis Platon Frisbie. However William K. Boone’s Wikipedia entry states that he was the General Manager from 1909 to 1926 “except for a few times during the Mexican Revolution 1910–1920 when he had to seek refuge in the American Embassy at Mexico City and move temporarily to the US fearing that his life was at stake”. The latest citation to the printer F.P. Hoeck that we could find was 1907. H. T. Greene the Traffic Manager was active in the late 1800s and as that as the early 1900s.
