Book excerpt: Excerpt from History of the Isthmus of Panama On recovering, Drake decided on crossing the Isthmus; but having lost many men by sickness, among them his brothers Joseph and John, he removed the remaining force to his own ship and pinnace. The Swan was sunk. His object was to intercept on the Isthmus, a train of mules, laden with the King's treasure. 0n meeting it he attacked and chased the party in charge, as far as Cruces, giving strict orders to his company not to hurt women or unarmed men. In their wanderings they came to a high tree, and climbing it viewed with transports of joy the great Pacific, an Ocean as yet entirely closed to English enterprise.

Download or read book The Conquest of the Isthmus written by Hugh C. Weir and published by . This book was released on 2015-08-06 with total page 328 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Conquest of the Isthmus: The Men Who Are Building the Panama Canal Their Daily Lives, Perils, and Adventures The Panama Canal never will be dug by machinery alone. Beyond the steam shovels and the dirt trains, beyond the air-drillers and the dredges, the union of the Atlantic and the Pacific depends upon the men who are giving health, wealth, and life in the battle with the tropical jungle. It is of these men, the khaki heroes of the wilderness, of whom I would tell, the men who have rubbed elbows with death from almost every angle and in almost every guise, in order that the American nation might win the greatest industrial victory in the history of the world. We have heard much of the industrial, political, mechanical, and financial sides of the Panama Canal. In fact the mass of material of this kind we have digested has smothered the human aspect of the great waterway. In the discussion of locks and dams, the romance of the Isthmus has been overlooked.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Panama Canal: Its Past, Present, and Future The Isthmus of Panama has been well described as a barrier between two oceans which has, nevertheless, failed to serve as a bridge between two continents. So rugged and overgrown with tropical jungle, and so subject to malarious and other disorders is this isthmus, that, despite its fame and its beauties in certain respects, this natural pathway between North and South America has been neglected as a means of transit, in a longitudinal direction, from the one to the other; and it still remains - away from the immediate influence of the canal works almost as wild as when traversed by Balboa. The same may be said concerning great portions of South America, which remain unaltered since first aroused by the tramp of the European horseman. No railway or road traverses the isthmus connecting the two continents The Panama Railroad crossed it transversely; an isolated link of communication in the interrupted navigation between the Pacific and the Atlantic.
