The Past and the Present of Steam Navigation on Long Island Sound is a historical account of the development and growth of steam navigation on Long Island Sound, written by Henry Whittemore in 1893. The book traces the evolution of steamboats and their impact on commerce, industry, and transportation in the region. It covers the early days of steam navigation in the 1820s, the rise of competition between steamboat companies, the impact of the Civil War on the industry, and the eventual decline of steam navigation in the late 19th century. The book also includes detailed descriptions of the various steamboats that operated on Long Island Sound, as well as their owners, captains, and crews. Overall, The Past and the Present of Steam Navigation on Long Island Sound provides a fascinating glimpse into the history of transportation and commerce in a critical region of the United States during the 19th century.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
