Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Developing America's Waterways: Administration of the Inland Waterways Corporation Secretary of War asked that the present independent survey of the corporation's policies and administration be made. The invitation to undertake a study of the Inland Water ways Corporation was extended to the University of Chicago in the summer of 19 34. The expense incident to the survey was borne by the Public Administration Fund of the University of Chicago. In his original invitation, Secretary Dern requested that the report should be a confidential one and the study was undertaken on that basis. The survey was completed about the first of January, 193 5. After the Secretary of War and the executive officers of the corporation had had an opportunity to examine the report, Secretary Dern in April, 193 5, authorized its publication by the author and the University of Chicago.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book presents an in-depth study of the role of civilian maritime activities in the development of the United States. It stresses the crucial role played by the oceans, rivers, lakes, and canals. The exploration and settlement of North America occurred within a maritime context during the European Age of Discovery. The colonists exploited the seas and rivers to develop a maritime-oriented economy prior to the American Revolution. British trade regulations both benefited and retarded the colonist's economic growth and played a substantial role in the movement towards independence. The study concludes with a discussion of the reasons for the decline of the American merchant marine and the dangers which that implies. Individual chapters are devoted to the fishing and whaling industries, the Great Lakes, and the western rivers.

Download or read book River Republic written by Daniel McCool and published by Columbia University Press. This book was released on 2012-08-07 with total page 409 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Daniel McCool not only chronicles the history of water development agencies in America and the way in which special interests have abused rather than preserved the country's rivers, he also narrates the second, brighter act in this ongoing story: the surging, grassroots movement to bring these rivers back to life and ensure they remain pristine for future generations. The culmination of ten years of research and observation, McCool's book confirms the surprising news that America's rivers are indeed returning to a healthier, free-flowing condition. The politics of river restoration demonstrates how strong grassroots movements can challenge entrenched powers and win. Through passion and dedication, ordinary people are reclaiming the American landscape, forming a "river republic" of concerned citizens from all backgrounds and sectors of society. As McCool shows, the history, culture, and fate of America is tied to its rivers, and their restoration is a microcosm mirroring American beliefs, livelihoods, and an increasing awareness of what two hundred years of environmental degradation can do. McCool profiles the individuals he calls "instigators," who initiated the fight for these waterways and, despite enormous odds, have succeeded in the near-impossible task of challenging and changing the status quo. Part I of the volume recounts the history of America's relationship to its rivers; part II describes how and why Americans "parted" them out, destroying their essence and diminishing their value; and part III shows how society can live in harmony with its waterways while restoring their well-being—and, by extension, the well-being of those who depend on them.
