Fixing Niagara Falls

Pages : 333
Book Description
Since the late nineteenth century, Niagara Falls has been heavily engineered to generate energy behind a flowing façade designed to appeal to tourists. Fixing Niagara Falls reveals the technological feats and cross-border politics that facilitated the transformation of one of the most important natural sites in North America. Daniel Macfarlane shows how this natural wonder is essentially a tap: huge tunnels around the reconfigured Falls channel the waters of the Niagara River, which ebb and flow according to the tourism calendar. This book offers a unique interdisciplinary and transborder perspective on how the Niagara landscape embodies the power of technology and nature.

Book Description
Excerpt from The Water-Power of the Falls of Niagara Applied to Manufacturing Purposes: The Hydraulic Tunnel of the Niagara Falls Power Company The magnitude of the great cataract, and its fame as a natural wonder, have heretofore, to a certain degree, excluded from thought the idea of its marvelous utilitarian properties, but the recent development of electrical science and the far-reaching enterprise of to-day, have now combined to subject to the uses of mankind a portion of the power of the Falls, developed at such a distance from the great cataract as not to interfere in any way with the natural beauty of the scenery. We believe that a careful perusal of these pages, and an examination of the accompanying plans, maps, and illustrations, devoted to a locality full of historic interest, famed for its features of natural grandeur, and destined to have an important bearing upon the manufacturing interests of the country, will richly repay the manufacturer, the capitalist and the workingman.
