At a time when the internal links among the states were scanty, the canal's planners boldly projected a system of transportation that would strike from the eastern seaboard, penetrate the frontier, and forge a bond between the East and the growing settlements of the West. In this comprehensive history, Ronald E. Shaw portrays the development of the canal as viewed by its contemporaries, who rightly saw it as an engineering marvel and an achievement of great economic and social significance not only for New York but also for the nation.\u003c\/body\u003e","brand":"University Press of Kentucky","offers":[{"title":"Erie Water West: A History of the Erie Canal, 1792-1854 | Ronald E Shaw | Paperback | 9780813108018 | Used: Like New | American History 1698450","offer_id":48433062183064,"sku":"1698450","price":7.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0492\/1609\/4360\/files\/71KflAkXQ8L.jpg?v=1773354688","url":"https:\/\/roundaboutbookstore.com\/products\/erie-water-west-a-history-of-the-erie-canal-1792-1854","provider":"Roundabout Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
