This volume contains the complete proceedings of the River Improvement Convention held in St. Louis on February 12th and 13th, 1867. Organized by the Merchants’ Exchange of St. Louis, the convention brought together stakeholders interested in promoting and improving navigation on the Mississippi River and its tributaries. The proceedings offer a valuable historical record of the discussions, debates, and resolutions concerning river commerce, engineering challenges, and the economic importance of waterways in the post-Civil War era. Topics covered range from dredging and levee construction to federal funding and the regulation of steamboat traffic.
