Book Description
Excerpt from Marco Paul's Travels and Adventures in the Pursuit of Knowledge: On the Erie Canal Why we could measure all the ups and all the downs, and so see whether it goes up or down the most. True, said Forester, we could do that. But that would take a great deal of time and labor. At any rate, we can learn the fact a great deal quicker from books, for there we shall find a drawing, with all the locks marked upon it, and the height of each one, - so that we can tell at a glance that the end at Buffalo, on Lake Erie, is the highest, and we can see how much higher it is.

Book Description
This historic book may have numerous typos and missing text. Purchasers can usually download a free scanned copy of the original book (without typos) from the publisher. Not indexed. Not illustrated. 1845 edition. Excerpt: ... chapter X. the steersman. After tea Marco and Forester took a walk again to see the canal. They passed across the river on the aqueduct, and came out to the canal at the chequered house again. They then followed the canal up, going from lock to lock, as it gradually ascended along the bank of the river. They stood upon the bank at one of the locks, seeing a boat go through. It was about half past six o'clock, and a calm and pleasant evening. The boat was not a packet, but it had several passengers on board. There was a woman sitting upon the deck, forward, with a little child by her side. The woman was knitting. The child was playing with a little basket. "Cousin Forester," said Marco, "let us get aboard of that boat and go along the canal a little way." "Then how shall we get back?" said Forester. "Why, we can find some other boat coming back," replied Marco. "The boats are going and coming all the time." The boat was then in the lock, and was rising very rapidly, as the water boiled up under it from the passages which they had opened through the bottom of the upper gates. Marco was in great haste to have Forester decide in favor of going, so that he might jump on the boat and be bucyed up with it. So Forester went to the edge of the lock with him, and they both stepped on together. When the lock was full the upper gates were opened and the boat sailed along. Forester and Marco sat down near the woman and attempted to talk with her, but they found that she could not speak English. She was a German woman. The child was just learning to talk, and Marco was very much amused at hearing so small a child speaking a foreign tongue. Presently, Forester took out a piece of paper from his pocket-book and said that he was going to draw a view of...
