Our Canal in Panama: The Greatest Achievement in the World's History is a historical account of the construction of the Panama Canal, written by Emory Adams Allen and first published in 1913. The book provides a detailed and comprehensive overview of the challenges faced during the construction of the canal, including the engineering feats required to overcome the difficult terrain and the health risks faced by workers. Allen also explores the political and economic factors that led to the creation of the canal, including the role of President Theodore Roosevelt and the United States government in securing the necessary funding and political support. The book is filled with photographs and illustrations that help to bring the story to life, and Allen's writing style is clear and engaging throughout. Overall, Our Canal in Panama is a fascinating and informative read for anyone interested in the history of engineering, politics, and international relations. It offers a unique perspective on one of the most significant achievements in modern history and sheds light on the challenges and triumphs of those who made it possible.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
