<p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br> <p><b>Travel back in time through the heyday of the old Erie Canal and see how it unleashed the growth of the United States.</b></p><br><p>The building of the Erie Canal was spearheaded by the vision of Gov. Dewitt Clinton, New York State to build the engineering marvel that opened the West to settlement and made New York City the center of finance and commerce. Opened in 1825, the canal proved so commercially viable that construction of an enlarged Erie Canal began just 11 years later. The success of the canal spawned the growth of cities, towns, businesses, and industries along its route in upstate New York. <p><i>Erie Canal</i> takes you on a journey where you can swim with the Volunteer Life Saving Corps as they sharpen their skills, view images of mule-drawn boats wending their way through scenic countryside, and marvel at the engineering of the bridges, aqueducts, and locks that facilitated the functioning of the canal. In addition, <i>Erie Canal</i> travels a step back in time and illuminates the people whose lives were shaped by the canal.</p>
