''History of the Ohio Canals: Their Construction, Cost, Use and Partial Abandonment'' is a comprehensive book written by the Ohio Historical Society in 1905. The book provides a detailed account of the construction, cost, and use of the canals in Ohio during the 19th century. It explores the economic and social impact of the canal system on the state of Ohio, including the growth of towns and cities, the transportation of goods and people, and the development of the state’s economy. The book also highlights the challenges faced during the construction of the canals, such as funding and engineering difficulties. Additionally, the book discusses the reasons for the partial abandonment of the canal system in the late 19th century, including the rise of the railroad industry. This book is a valuable resource for anyone interested in the history of transportation and infrastructure in Ohio and the United States.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
