"There have been numerous books written about the development of the steamship but most deal with vessels built after Robert Fulton's commercial success of 1807 in America. Very few contain more than a line or so on the many earlier attempts made, and these at best only briefly mention William Symington. Both Fulton and Symington were contemporaries in their early but seperate endeavours between 1785 and 1807. Neither were commercially successful by Symingtons last vessel of 1803 and possibly his penultimate one of 1801, were the technical equal of the vessel built by Fulton in 1807." -- from dust jacket.

The steamboat evokes images of leisurely travel, genteel gambling, and lively commerce, but behind the romanticized view is an engineering marvel that led the way for the steam locomotive. From the steamboat's development by Robert Fulton to the dawn of the Civil War, the new mode of transportation opened up America's frontiers and created new trade routes and economic centers. Firsthand accounts of steamboat accidents, races, business records and river improvements are collected here to reveal the culture and economy of the early to mid-1800s, as well as the daily routines of crew and passengers. A glossary of steamboat terms and a collection of contemporary accounts of accidents round out this history of the riverboat era.
