Cottman's History Pamphlets, 1905: The First Thoroughfares of Indiana
Print on DemandSeller: Forgotten Books, London, United Kingdom
Seller rating 5 out of 5 stars
Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book presents a comprehensive history of Indianaâs internal improvement works, with a focus on three main projects: road improvements, canals, and railroads. The author, a state geologist, originally prepared the material for this book as a chapter in the 30th annual geological report where it would serve to demonstrate a historical connection between the stateâs early trails and the development of its infrastructure. The author traces the progression of Indianaâs thoroughfares from Native American trails, through the poorly constructed wagon traces of the early 1800s, and finally to the establishment of a state road system. The author also details Indianaâs canal-building era, including the construction of the Wabash and Erie Canal as well as several smaller canals. The final section of the book focuses on the transformative effect of railroad development in the state. Throughout, the author discusses the economic, political, and social factors that influenced the development of Indiana's transportation infrastructure, providing insights into the state's growth and development. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format. In rare cases, an imperfection in the original, such as a blemish or missing page, may be replicated in the book. print-on-demand item. Seller Inventory # 9780265128459_0
