Samuel Hopkins ADAMS
The Erie Canal
Hardcover
(Random March 15, 1953)
Mr. Adams brings to life a group of interesting, colorful York-staters: Captain Osgoodby, skipper of the canal boat Starry Flag, and a fighting man to boot; the canny farmers who lived on the canal-side and were always ready to sue the authorities; the rowdy packet boat "runners" who gave Schenectady its nickname, "The Battleground< and the canal diggers who let neither malaria-ridden swamp nor solid rock stand in their way.
