Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In 1848, a group of ambitious American entrepreneurs decided to embark upon a remarkable engineering feat—they would build a railroad across the Isthmus of Panama to connect the Atlantic and Pacific Oceans. The creation of the Panama Railroad ranks as one the boldest capitalist ventures in the 19th century, and would require battling climate, disease, and geography before it was completed. On a human level, it would transform the destiny of thousands of lives in America, Panama, the West Indies, and Asia, as well as in Ireland. The Panama Railroad provides the first comprehensive account of the railroad's construction, going well beyond the known stories of the titans of industry involved with its construction, such as William Aspinwall, George Law, and Cornelius Vanderbilt. It seeks to correct false claims and address numerous gaps in past histories, and in particular showcases the stories of the ordinary Irish workers willing to travel halfway around the globe to pursue an uncertain future and a perilous undertaking in the hopes of escaping the devastating aftermath of the Great Famine of 1845–49.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Illustrated History of the Panama Railroad In preparing the "Hand-book of the Panama Railroad," the endeavor has been to present, 1. A full and reliable history of the road, from the inception of the original contract to the present day, and such an account of its present condition and business regulations as would be likely to interest and benefit the traveling and commercial public. 2. All necessary information for the shipper and the traveler concerning the various lines of steam and sail communication connecting with the road. 3. A brief account of the present condition, commercial and other resources, of the countries bordering the Pacific coast, and doing business with the United States and Europe over the Panama Railroad, with such information in regard to the expenses connected with commercial transactions in those countries as it has been thought would prove serviceable to the mercantile and shipping interests. In preparing this work from the most recent authorities and reliable sources, the strictest accuracy has been the first consideration. The tariffs and commercial regulations have been taken from documents published by the United States government in 1858. To the following works (not credited in place) the Author is indebted for valuable statistics: Harper's Cyclopœdia of Commerce, 1858; Appleton's American Cyclopœdia, 1860-1861.
