Synopsis

This book examines the economic, political, and geographic importance of building a railway to Puget Sound, Washington. The proposed railway would connect the Missouri River to Puget Sound, giving the United States control of commerce between the Orient and the West. The author argues that this project is essential for the nation's future; stating that control of the railway would give the United States political and economic power, and stimulate the economy. Furthermore, the author asserts that the railway would be a direct route to China, making it easier to trade and do business, which would boost the American economy. The author provides a wealth of detail on the potential benefits of the railway, providing a comprehensive and convincing argument for its construction. The book is thought-provoking and well-researched, offering new insights into the economic, political, and geographic implications of westward expansion.
