Tropical Iron: The Saga of Minor Keith

The story of Minor Keith and the construction of the Costa Rican Railway in the 19th Century. Laying one hundred miles of track cost the lives of over 4000 men, took nearly 20 years to complete, and bankrupted a nation. It resulted in the formation of the United Fruit Company, the largest agricultural enterprise in the world, and the most controversial US company ever to operate in Latin America.
