Excerpt from The Americans in Panama Canal requires that a writer not merely View the object which he describes, but that he actually become a part of the mechanism that is giving it form. He may thus practically illuminate observation with experience, and so vivify the object in his own thought, that his attempt to present it to others will be a close approximation of the truth. In the five months the author spent in Panama, he was for slightly more than three months an employee of the Isthmian Canal Commission, living the routine life of a canal employee. He discovered that, had he followed the usual method of coming into the Canal Zone on one steamer, taking notes, and leav ing on the next steamer, he would have missed many fundamental facts, which absolutely must be known if a really trustworthy account of the greatest task of the age is desired.

Excerpt from Panama, Past and Present A study of this noteworthy undertaking is of especial value to us because this is an American achievement, projected by the people of the United States through their representatives at Washington; paid for from the revenues of this nation; accomplished by the grit, sagacity, and perseverance of some of the greatest Americans of this generation. We are not intelligent if we are uninformed on such a subject; we are unwise if we fail to appreciate its significance; we are unpatriotic if we do not applaud the doings of such citizens.

Excerpt from South of Panama "In writing about the South Americans," said one of our Consuls, "no doubt you will always bear in mind that it is the traditional policy of the United States to cultivate their friendship." I have done nothing of the sort. My first obligation is not to National Policy but to Truth. Enough has been written in furtherance of our trade and diplomacy; it is high time for a candid examination of the facts. This book is not intended to help sell our goods below the Equator, but to interpret to Americans the people who, in consequence of the opening of the Panama Canal, have become new neighbors of ours. It is the pet sentiment of Pan-Americanism that the peoples of the two Americas are spiritual cousins. Are we not all children of the New World? The fact is that the British, the Norwegians, the Dutch, even the Germans, have much more in common with us than the South Americans. On the other hand, their mental affinities are with the Latins of the Old World, rather than with us. The differences between us in ideas and ideals run far deeper than the ordinary traveler imagines. South America is the victim of a bad start. It was never settled by whites in the way that they settled the United States. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Excerpt from Old Panama For migration, commerce, or war, the Isthmus of America (with or without a canal) is the most important strategic point in the world. Ever since its conquest by Spain, other nations have recognized the value of the Isthmus, and sought to possess this narrow strip of land between the two great oceans.

Excerpt from Panama and What It Means Yes, observed the American enthusiast, it is a great ditch. You see those flat cars piled with dirt? Well, by the time the Atlantic joins the Pacific we Shall have removed as much dirt as would fill a train of such cars miles long, which is getting pretty near four times round the earth. Yes, it is a great ditch. This is the spirit of the men who, between Colon and Panama, are digging and blasting, dam ming rivers, fighting landslips, building locks, so the great Canal will be finished long before the official opening day, which is in 1915.

Excerpt from Searchlight on the Panama Canal: Or America's Greatest Enterprise At A. M. I was seated in an express train on the Penn sylvania Railroad Line at Union Station. Soon the signal bell sounded, the engine puffed its curling and ascending smoke, and the iron horse was seen moving at about forty miles an hour toward New York, where I was met by Secretary Bell, of the Young Men's Christian Association. I was greatly impressed by the Secretary's courteous and obliging manner. He took me through the Association building. Everything was in the best order and as neat as could be.

Excerpt from The Panama Canal: System and Projects The Panama Canal is an undertaking of the vastest meaning to America, commercially and nationally. Its construction should be so correct as to leave nothing for present regret or future challenge. It becomes in some measure the duty of every engineer who cherishes his ideal for this great public work to break his silence and reserve if he perceives that in any vital degree or at any remediable point the Canal seems failing Of the highest that it can achieve. No one knows more intimately the elements, no one knows more profoundly the difiiculties, inherent in this vast problem, than the eminent men, French and American, who, from the inception in 1879 all the way to to-day, have studied and planned by the best in them to solve its perplexities. Let praise go to them unstinted, for this is their smallest due. Believing profoundly, though reluct antly, that the announced methods of solution are not such as to secure to the American people the best, the safest and the most enduring Canal, the writer feels that he would be faithlesscto his citizenship did he not state so. Knowing further that there exists a more scientific system, it has become his duty as. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
