Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Artificial Waterways of the World
People have come to realize that the function of artificial water navigation is to supplement and complement, and not to rival the railways. The great development and successful rivalry of the Canadian canals have attracted wide attention and done much to bring to our people a proper appreciation of the great service which canals and canalized rivers may render.
