Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book provides a detailed survey for the construction of a ship canal from Toledo, Ohio to Chicago, Illinois via Fort Wayne, Indiana. The project is considered within the context of the need to ease the transportation burden placed upon the American people by the significant costs associated with rail transport. The author argues that waterways offer a huge advantage over rail and discusses various possible routes for the canal. Ultimately, the proposed route runs from Lake Erie to Lake Michigan and has a length of 235â"240 miles, with 100 of those miles utilizing the already existing Maumee River. The book concludes that the proposed canal would be critically important for the growth and prosperity of both Chicago and the United States as a whole, as it will allow for cheaper transportation of vital commodities and resources.
