Book Description
Excerpt from A General History of Inland Navigation, Foreign and Domestic: Containing a Complete Account of the Canals Already Executed in England, With Considerations on Those Projected Canals, which I have not noticed, viz. That they waste or take up too great a portion of land in the countries through which they pass; but I hope it will be a full and cogent answer to this objection, that one mile of a canal, 14 yards wide or broad; takes up little more than five acres of land. If these then are the great advantages attending ins land navigation, and if the objections raised against it are so weak, let us hope that the prejudices of the uninformed will not prevent any of the great and noble projects which yet remain to be executed.
