Description
Excerpt from Panama Canal Pictures: Showing the Latest Photographs of the Progress of Construction on the Isthmian Canal; Together With a Brief Introduction, Some Interesting Figures, and a Map of the Canal Zone
O give anything like a complete description of such a huge undertaking as the Panama Canal is manifestly impossible in such a limited space. It' is likewise out of the question to give a history of the Canal project, from the earliest times to the present, or the events of the period of French occupancy, the Panama Revolution, or the undertaking of the work by the United States.
Farm Journal readers, like all other Americans, are interested in these things, and should read about them from the numerous books that have been written and published.
This little book, however, aims only to give some of the latest pictures showing the progress of the work, and to give them in such orderly form that the reader may feel he or she has made a personal trip, even if a very rapid one, across the Isthmus.
