Explore a bold, lockless canal concept across Mexico's Isthmus and the rivers that could feed it.

This edition lays out practical routes, hydraulic ideas, and the engineering logic behind a potential waterway that would connect the Pacific and Gulf of Mexico without a single lock.

Grounded in on-site observations and river studies, the book explains how the Mezcalapa, Grijalva, Santa Ana, Ostuta, and other waterways might be harnessed to create a navigable interoceanic passage. It discusses route options, the role of water supply, slope and excavation considerations, and the practicalities of channeling or canalizing rivers with modern technology. The analysis emphasizes the terrain, geology, and water volumes needed to support a large-scale canal project in Mexican territory.

Readers will gain insight into historical context, hydrological reasoning, and engineering proposals that aim to reduce travel time between oceans. The work highlights how water power, topography, and careful design could shape a transoceanic route without locks, while noting the economic and logistical implications of different paths.

How river systems could feed a lockless canal across the isthmus
Considerations of slope, excavation, and water flow management
Multiple Gulf- and Pacific-facing route options and their trade-offs
Engineering methods and materials that would support large-scale canal work

Ideal for readers of technical feasibility studies, infrastructure history, and projects tackling grand-scale maritime problems.

Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book is a meticulous study of the Mexican Interoceanic Canal, a project to connect the Atlantic and Pacific Oceans through the Mexican Isthmus. It provides a detailed history of previous expeditions and their failed attempts to find a suitable location, setting the stage for the author's own remarkable discovery: a viable route that would avoid the need for locks. Drawing on extensive research and firsthand exploration, the author presents a comprehensive plan for the canal, utilizing existing rivers and excavating a short section to connect them. The book also discusses the potential economic and geopolitical benefits of the canal, highlighting its significance as a transformative project for Mexico and a vital link in global maritime trade. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format. In rare cases, an imperfection in the original, such as a blemish or missing page, may be replicated in the book. print-on-demand item. N� de r�f. du vendeur 9780428149208_0
