Speaker Series: America's Canal Era

Advertisement

In the early 19th century, Americans looked to canals for transportation. They carried people and goods over long distances with minimal power, and extended the benefits of water-born commerce from seaports to inland communities.
Join The Henry Ford Museum’s Curator of Transportation, Matt Anderson, as he recognizes the 200th anniversary of the completion of New York State’s Erie Canal, and the rise and fall of canal building in the pre-Civil War United States.
