Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book argues in favor of constructing an isthmian ship-railway across the Tehuantepec Isthmus in Mexico. It presents a detailed plan and examines the commercial, climatic, constructive, and strategic advantages of this route over other potential crossings. The author stresses the e…conomic and political importance of the project, including the boost it would give to the U.S. merchant marine and the protection it would provide to American interests in the region. Overall, the book provides a compelling case for constructing an isthmian ship-railway at Tehuantepec, arguing that it would greatly benefit the United States and facilitate global trade. 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.

Soft cover. Condition: Very Good. CORTHELL, Elmer L. The Atlantic and Pacific Ship-Railway across the Isthmus of Tehuantepec in Mexico, Considered Commercially, Politically and Constructively. Bowne and Co., Printers, NYC, January 1886. 9"x6", 80pp, 6 plates. Original wrappers. [++] There is a condition issue: the pamphlet is in… halves as the folding plates were too heavy for any repeated opening and use on the slm binding and so the halving of the work.[++] Provenance: U.S. Geological Survey, and hen the Library of Congress, with their two rubber stamps on front wrapper; then one stamp each on front flyleaf and the title page. Nice copy of a very interesting report (see photos) that puts me in mind of the impossible movie, "Fitzcaraldo". Werner Herzog. If you don't know the movie, go check it out. What a spectacular image of the ship being moved by locomotives overland. Fabu.
