America and the Canal is a historical book written by Joseph C. Freehoff and published in 1916. The book narrates the story of the construction of the Panama Canal, which was one of the most significant engineering feats of the early 20th century. The author provides a detailed account of the political, economic, and social factors that led to the construction of the canal, including the rivalry between the United States and European powers for control of the Caribbean and the Pacific. The book also covers the challenges faced during the construction of the canal, including the deadly diseases that plagued the workers and the engineering difficulties of building a canal through difficult terrain. The author also explores the impact of the canal on the United States and the world, including its role in facilitating global trade and its impact on the geopolitical landscape of the Americas. Overall, America and the Canal is a comprehensive and insightful account of one of the most significant engineering achievements in modern history.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
