Contact seller3-star sellerHardcover. 23cm, limited to 825 copies, cxvii,494,viii,p., index, subscribers list, appendix, colour frontispiece, 6 maps, 25 illustrations, red crested red cloth, gilt titles, t.e.g., a fine bright copy. (On) Built to bypass Niagara Falls and link Lake Ontario with Erie and the Upper Great Lakes, the final version would become…a crucial part of the St. Lawrence Seaway system for international shipping. The volume appropriately uses the plural "canals," as it relates the evolution of four different ones between 1829 and 1930, as well as the Feeder Canal. Suggested canal routes predating the actual canals are discussed, through proposals made as early as 1707.

Hardback. Condition: New. This Colossal Project presents an absorbing epic on the building of the fourth Welland Canal, which connects Lake Ontario and Lake Erie and allows ships to bypass Niagara Falls. An immense undertaking, the canal is a vital part of North America's infrastructure and still functions as an essential part o…f the St Lawrence Seaway. Emphasizing the role that vivid personalities - including engineers John Laing Weller and Alex Grant as well as contractors and labourers - played in the construction of the canal, Roberta Styran and Robert Taylor use archival sources, government documents, newspapers, maps, and original plans to describe a saga of technological, financial, geographical, and social obstacles met and overcome in an accomplishment akin to the building of the Canadian Pacific Railway. A story of Canadian skill, courage, vision, and hardship, This Colossal Project details the twenty-year excavation of the giant channel and the creation of huge concrete locks amidst war, the Great Depression, political change, and labour unrest. Building on the work presented in Styran and Taylor's This Great National Object, which told the story of the first three Welland canals built in the nineteenth century, This Colossal Project chronicles an impressive milestone in the history of Canadian technological achievement and nation building.

Hardback. Condition: New. Making extensive use of the National Archives and the Archives of Ontario, Styran and Taylor unveil previously unpublished information about the construction of the canals, including technical plans and drawings from a wide variety of sources. They illustrate the technical and management intricacies of…building a navigational trade and commerce lifeline while also revealing the vivid characters - from businessman William Hamilton Merritt to engineer John Page - who inspired the project and drove it to completion. The history of the Welland Canals is a gripping tale of epic proportions. Given the ongoing importance of the Great Lakes in the North American economy, interest in the St. Lawrence Seaway - of which the Welland is "the Great Swivel Link" - and the relevance of labour history, This Great National Object will be of interest to enthusiasts and historians alike.
