Book Description
Excerpt from A New System of Inland Conveyance, for Goods and Passengers: Capable of Being Applied and Extended Throughout the Country; And of Conveying All Kinds of Goods, Cattle, and Passengers, With the Velocity of Sixty Miles in an Hour, at an Expense That Will Not Exceed the One-Fourth Part of the Present Mode of Travellin There is no art that has ever engaged the assiduity and energy of mankind, that is of such general utility, of such immediate and unbounded importance, of such innate and intrinsic value to the civilized world, as that of the conveyance of goods and persons from place to place, over the surface of the globe. It is not only of itself of the highest value, but it creates and constitutes, in a very great degree, the value of all other things; for a great part of the natural produce of the whole earth is valueless to mankind for want of the means of conveyance, and the greatest part of the artificial produce is valuable only in proportion to the facility with which it can be conveyed to a market.
