Contact seller5-star sellerUnpaged - [2], [12], [2] pages plus covers. Staple-bound booklet: H 20.5cm x L 15.25cm. Tan paper covers with some staining and soiling, light crease to front cover. Binding staples rusted but firm. Short closed tears at center fore-edges of covers and all leaves; light stains at top margins of early leaves but pages otherwise r…emain quite clean. A good+ copy of an uncommon publication. No publishing date is specified but OCLC and the Library of Congress online catalog cite 1912. Features title leaf plus ten pages of text in which geologist E.N. Lowe proposes aiding flood control for the Mississippi River by diverting the Tennessee River down the Tombigbee River via Yellow Creek and Mackey Creek in Tishomingo County in the northeastern corner of Mississippi. In essence this is an early proposal for what eventually would become the Tennessee-Tombigbee Waterway. Lowe's plan is not mentioned in John Barry's RISING TIDE which, of course, discusses Mississippi River flood control at length.
