S. S. Savannah, the Elegant Steam Ship

Pages : 290
Book Description
This is the story of a ship and her pioneer master, Moses Rogers, who had the idea of making the first transatlantic voyage in a steam-propelled vessel. His "laudable and meritorious experiment" marked one of the world's maritime epochs. The conception and building of the S. S. Savannah was guided by the engineering genius of Captain Rogers who, with Robert Fulton, was a leading exponent of steam in his day. The momentous voyage began in Savannah, Georgia, in 1819, and took the courageous crew to England, Sweden, and Russia. These were the elegant steam ship's times of triumph. Yet she also had moments of pathos, from the first doubts and fears of a public that dubbed her a "steam coffin" to that sad day when a Washington newspaper said her engine could be removed for only $200, leaving her "just as good" as any other ship. The previously untold story of the first steam-powered vessel to cross the Atlantic is written in a scholarly, well-documented fashion, yet with the color, imagination, and humor of the men who lived it.

Book Description
Excerpt from Steamship City of Savannah: Discussion in the United States Senate on the Subject of the Historic Old Steamship City of Savannah as the First Steamship Which Crossed the Atlantic Ocean That is my first recollection o the first steamship that crossed the Atlantic. Mr. Bacon. If the Senator from Utah will pardon me just a moment, I want to say that in most matters I yield to my learned friend from Mississippi in the accuracy of his recollection and in the width of his research, but I certainly will stake what little reputation have u on the accuracy of the statement that the City of Savannah was the rst steamship that ever crossed the Atlantic or any other ocean, and that can be roven by the records.
