This book examines the political tensions that arose when New York State's Erie Canal was nearing completion in the 1820s. The author explains that communities that were not situated on the canal—like Otsego and Schoharie—lost out on economic opportunities, while those along the canal saw prosperity. The author argues that the regional disparities that were created during this time had a long-term impact on New York State politics and infrastructure, and the arguments presented showcase the complex interplay between political power and economic development.
