Excerpt from The Board of Trade of San Francisco: Report of Special Committee on Inter-Oceanic Canal, 1880This brings to mind another important question of transportation involved in the idea of an inter-oceanic canal, connecting the Pacific and Atlantic oceans, which is now receiving so much attention from eminent engineers in various parts of the world and from our own government, which has already expended a large amount of money in surveys. Its special interest to San Francisco, and whether across the Isthmus of Panama or Nicaragua, seem to be proper subjects for our consideration. Its importance to this coast will be a matter of the near future, and it might be studied up with much profit. A committee for this pur pose would find much interesting data to present, and I trust it will receive your earnest enquiry, and a committee be chosen.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
