A pictorial review of the historic Delaware and Lehigh Canals of eastern Pennsylvania. The Lehigh, which ran from Mauch Chunk (now Jim Thorpe) to Easton and the Deleware, which connected Easton and Bristol, were the main transporation system for anthracite coal in the 19th century.

Hundreds of vintage photographs are reproduced in this volume.
