Roads and Canals in the 18th Century (Then and There Series)

4.9/5 (14827 ratings)

Description:I was disappointed that there wasn't much about the canal system in the Roads and Canals book. It was mostly about roads, but it surely showed why people started paving roads, and why canals were such an improvement over even paved roads. I hadn't realized what a huge difference broken stone meant. It throws a whole new light on all those prisoners breaking up rocks. I was impressed by the number of images from contemporary paintings and quotes from those who had to use the roads. I liked the suggestions made for thinking about what this information meant, and for going out and learning more about the topic.We have made it easy for you to find a PDF Ebooks without any digging.
