Paperback. Condición: New. Print on Demand. This book is an early analysis of arguments for and against the construction of a ship railway in competition with a ship canal across the Isthmus of Panama. The author was an advocate for the ship railway option and posited a series of arguments against the canal, which at the time was popular in the press. This book is published at a time of increasing international trade and urgent need for faster and more economical ways to move goods between the Atlantic and Pacific Oceans. The author writes at a time of increasing skepticism toward the construction of ship canals, and against a backdrop of other large engineering and construction projects of the day, such as the Erie Canal, the Suez Canal, and railroads throughout the United States. The book delves into a lively debate over the topic of whether to build a canal or a ship railway. The author insightfully puts forth pros and cons for each, such as transportation time, costs, maintenance, and strategic value to the nation. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format.
