This must read is the larger-than-life true story of adventure, revolution, ordeal and accomplishment: the building of the Panama Canal. 164 magnificent historic photos and well-researched text tell the compelling tale and document the Canal's complete construction and its way of life: 450 miles of railroad, housing for 60,000 based on a caste system, the exotic settings, hardships, leisure activities, feats and failures, and finally, victory! This thrilling account of perhaps the greatest engineering marvel of the early twentieth century is a must-read for everyone.
