Restrictive Railway Legislation is a book written by Henry Stevens Haines and published in 1905. The book is focused on the regulation of railways in the United States during the late 19th and early 20th century. Haines argues that the government's efforts to regulate the railway industry were often misguided and had unintended consequences. He contends that restrictive legislation, such as the Interstate Commerce Act of 1887 and the Sherman Antitrust Act of 1890, actually hindered competition and innovation in the industry. Haines provides a detailed analysis of the history of railway regulation in the United States, including the various laws and court cases that shaped the industry. He also examines the economic and political factors that influenced the government's approach to regulation. Throughout the book, Haines advocates for a more laissez-faire approach to railway regulation, arguing that the industry would be better served by allowing market forces to determine prices and services. Overall, Restrictive Railway Legislation is a comprehensive and insightful exploration of the complex issues surrounding railway regulation in the United States. It provides valuable historical context for understanding the current state of the railway industry and the ongoing debates over regulation and competition.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
