For over two centuries, the Champlain Canal has linked Lake Champlain and the Hudson River-connecting not only waterways, but also states, cultures, and economies. In this bicentennial anthology from the Lake Champlain Maritime Museum, historians, archaeologists, and scientists explore the canal's enduring influence on the lake, its people, and the broader region. The chapters trace themes from early canal construction and politics, landscape change and the archaeology of canal boats, to the canal's evolving impact on tourism, recreation, and lake ecology. Whether readers are seasoned enthusiasts or newcomers to this story, we hope they will discover fresh insights into a waterway that continues to shape the Champlain Valley today. Contributors include: Chris Sabick, Brad Utter, Paul Willard Gates, T. Picard, Scott McLaughlin, Matt Harrison, Meg Modley Gilbertson, and Ryan Mitchell.
