Great Building Feats Series
Lesley A. DuTemple – For centuries people had dreamed about a canal through Panama, cutting off thousands of miles of ship travel from the Atlantic to the Pacific. Men had tried and failed, but in the latter 1800’s, the USA saw a Panama Canal as a necessity. Read about the engineering obstacles, from damming the river which snaked across the canal route, to building a railroad to move the dirt, and how tens of thousands lost their lives.
