| 520 ## - SUMMARY, ETC. | |
| Summary, etc. | "History of Steam on the Erie Canal" by Anonymous is a historical account written in the early 1970s. The book examines the development and trials of steam power on the Erie Canal, detailing various steam vessels' designs and performances between the late 1850s and the early 1870s. It explores the challenges faced in the pursuit of adopting steam technology for canal transportation, specifically highlighting mechanical shortcomings and the effectiveness of existing horse-drawn systems. The book presents an in-depth analysis of multiple steam-powered vessels, such as the "Charles Wack", "Cathcart", and "Baxter", evaluating their operational histories and technical specifications while contrasting them with horse-drawn boats. The author systematically chronicles various designs and innovations attempted over the years, emphasizing their inefficiencies and failures. Ultimately, it stresses the need for significant mechanical improvements to make steam-powered vessels competitive with traditional horse-drawn transport, advocating for ongoing support and inventive approaches to enhance steam technology on the canal. The work serves as both an informative resource on a specific historical period and a critique of the technological limitations of steam propulsion in canal transport.
