The Log of the Alton recounts the journey of the Business Men’s League to New Orleans in October 1909. Penned by Walter Barlow Stevens, this narrative provides a detailed record of the voyage, capturing the observations, reflections, conversations, and activities that unfolded during the five-day excursion. More than a mere travelogue, the book offers a snapshot of early 20th-century American business culture and the aspirations of a community seeking economic development. Readers gain insight into the perspectives and priorities of the businessmen from Alton, Illinois, as they explore New Orleans and engage in discussions about commerce and progress. This historical document serves as a valuable resource for understanding the social and economic dynamics of the era, offering a glimpse into the ambitions and interactions of a group of influential figures at a pivotal moment in American history.This work has been selected by scholars as being culturally important, and is part of the knowledge base of civilization as we know it.
