Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book proposes that a system of reservoirs and controlled release of waters could resolve flooding and improve navigation channels along the course of the Mississippi to the Gulf of Mexico. Written by a civil engineer in 1900, this detailed work assesses the flooding of that era, and suggests a remedy based upon a deep understanding of the complex interactions of the river systems involved. The author draws upon an extensive study of discharge data and river characteristics to support his proposals, and concludes that while the complete implementation of the plan might be a distant prospect, aspects of the proposed system could be begun and would have an impact on river behavior from the outset.
