Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book is a collection of resolutions and discussions from a convention held in 1825 to consider measures for promoting the internal improvements of the state of Maryland. The convention's main focus was on the construction of a canal to connect the Chesapeake Bay with the Ohio River, which they believed would have a transformative impact on the state's economy and infrastructure. The resolutions adopted by the convention called for the state to invest in the construction of a canal and to seek the cooperation of the federal government and the state of Virginia in its construction. The convention also discussed other internal improvement projects, including the improvement of the navigation of the Susquehanna River and the construction of a lateral canal from the city of Baltimore to the Potomac River. The book provides valuable insights into the early history of internal improvements in the United States and the role of state governments in promoting economic development.
