Book excerpt: Excerpt from A Political and Constitutional Study of the Cumberland Road: A Dissertation These rivers of the Atlantic plain furnished excellent thoroughfares for communication. Their peculiar character greatly facilitated this use. Indeed, it may be said with truth that all the Atlantic coast rivers end in drowned valleys; that is, the tide rolls into the James to Rich mond; the Delaware to Trenton; and the Hudson to Albany. They are great arms of the ocean extending far inland. They were the nerve-currents reaching to and from the extremities of the colonies. They were the media of internal commerce, and because of their great number and excellence the era of artificial means of communication was postponed until demanded by force of circumstances.
