About this Item
Description:
126,[2]pp. plus five lithographic plates. Half title. Original printed wrappers. Wrappers torn and chipped around the edges. Very clean and neat internally. Good plus. A scarce work on the feasibility of colonizing the Isthmus of Tehuantepec in southern Mexico, issued at the time when the Mexican government was pushing to build a railroad across the isthmus, which would effectively connect the Atlantic and Pacific oceans. This area of southern Mexico, measuring less than 200 miles across, had long been considered a possible location for a trans-oceanic canal. By the late 19th century those plans had come to naught, and efforts were made to construct a railroad through the area. The present work is a thorough study of the Tehuantepec region, its climate, topography, suitability for agriculture, etc. The lithographs, drawn by Debray, show various places in the region, including the towns of Las Lomas and La Hacienda de Chivela, and the pass at Masahua. Prieto was chief engineer for the Mexican national railroad. PALAU 236962. Seller Inventory # WRCAM39403
