The Story of Panama: The New Route to India explores the history, engineering, and geopolitical significance of the Panama Canal, a major waterway that connects the Atlantic and Pacific Oceans. The canal has played a pivotal role in international trade and navigation, significantly reducing the time and distance it takes for ships to travel between the eastern and western hemispheres. The Story of Panama was published in 1912 when the construction of the Panama Canal was nearing completion. The canal officially opened in 1914. This work provides a detailed account of the planning, construction, and challenges faced during the building of the Panama Canal. It delves into the technological innovations and engineering feats required to create this massive waterway, which involved digging through challenging terrain and controlling the flow of water. Frank A. Gause and Charles Carr were journalists who wrote on topics related to engineering, transportation, and infrastructure development. Together, they sought to provide a comprehensive account of the canal's construction and its far-reaching consequences. This new edition is dedicated to Professor Isidro Morales, keen researcher and versatile scholar, editor and teacher.
