Book excerpt: In 1807, Robert Fulton, using an English mail-order steam engine, chugged four miles an hour up the Hudson River and into American folklore as the inventor of the steamboat. However, the true first passenger steamboat in America, and the world, was built from scratch by John Fitch and plied the Delaware River almost two decades earlier. Steam tells the two-decade saga of America's first important venture in technology, a fascinating tale whose cast of characters includes George Washington, Thomas Jefferson, and Benjamin Franklin.
