Book excerpt: A fascinating history of the Ohio and Erie Canal, from a national leader in agricultural output to a recreational resource. George Washington first proposed the idea of a canal connecting the Great Lakes to the Ohio-Mississippi River System in 1784. Inspired by the Erie Canal in New York, the State of Ohio began surveying routes in 1822 for its own grand internal improvement project. Completed a decade later, the 309-mile-long Ohio and Erie Canal connected Cleveland, Akron, Massillon, Dover, Roscoe, Newark, Columbus, Circleville, Chillicothe, Waverly, and Portsmouth. Success was immediate, as this vital transportation link provided access to Eastern markets. Within a span of 35 years, canals transformed Ohio from a rural frontier wilderness into the nation's leader in agricultural output and third most populous state by 1860. Railroads marked the end of the canal as an economic engine, but traffic continued to operate until the Great Flood of 1913 destroyed the system as a commercial enterprise. Today, the Ohio and Erie Canal is enjoying a rebirth as a recreational resource.

Book excerpt: If you have read this far through this adventurous historical lesson, youre now an authority on the Ohio & Erie Canal. A great effort went into making this book readable, enjoyable, and accurate. This book was inspired years ago as a child playing next to the Ohio & Erie Canal. Years later, my interest unfolded into such marvelous events beginning in the Flats of Cleveland. This is where my walk began, heading south towards the Ohio River. In the 156 hour walk, I got to see the same sights the canalers experienced nearly 200 years ago. I walked into the back woods and many out-of-the-way places. I would be certain that since the final days of the canal brought on by the flood of 1913, I am the only person who has walked its distance. To sum it up, it was pure adventure, excitement, and fulfillment.
