Troubled Waters
Author: Paul F. Paskoff
Publisher: LSU Press
ISBN: 0807133876
Category : Inland navigation
Languages : en
Pages : 345
Book Description
In Troubled Waters, Paul F. Paskoff offers a comprehensive examination of the federal government's river improvements program, which aimed to reduce hazards to navigation on the great rivers of America's interior during the early and mid-nineteenth century. Danger on the rivers came in a variety of forms. Shoals, rapids, ice, rocks, sandbars, and uprooted trees and submerged steamboat wrecks lodged in river beds were the most common perils and accounted for the largest number of steamboat disasters. As such, improving the safety and efficiency of the nation's waterways was consistently at the forefront of political and economic discussions of the day.
