| 520 ## - SUMMARY, ETC. | |
| Summary, etc. | "Facts and Figures Concerning the Hoosac Tunnel" by John J. Piper is a historical account written in the mid-19th century. The work discusses the construction and significance of the Hoosac Tunnel, a critical infrastructure project aimed at improving trade routes between New England and the West. As it unfolds, the text addresses the economic implications of inadequate transportation facilities in Massachusetts and captures the socio-political dynamics influencing the project. The opening of the book presents a compelling argument for the construction of the Hoosac Tunnel, emphasizing the need for improved transportation links due to a growing discrepancy in trade capabilities between New England and the more developed western regions. Piper cites various opinions and articles, including a significant letter from Governor Bullock, which showcases the urgent need for new avenues of transportation. He discusses the challenges faced by the Western Railroad and contrasts it with the potential benefits and feasibility of the Hoosac Tunnel, noting both the local industrial potential of the area and the historical context of prior attempts at construction.
