Stoddard Johnston, president of the Filson Club from 1891 to 1913, was a strong advocate for the construction of locks and dams to provide year-round navigation on the Kentucky River from its mouth upstream to Beattyville at the Three Forks. He insisted that building the locks and dams would provide reliable access to markets for agriculture produce, and coal and mineral resources. His position as Secretary of State, and his collaboration with his friend, Kentucky geologist Nathaniel Southgate Shaler, provided the impetus for the construction of 14 Locks and Dams. But when in the 1930's Congress began requiring intense economic analysis of proposed projects, it was determined that the costs had not justified the disappointing results.…

Hardcover. Condizione: Very Good. No Jacket. 1984, iv, 346pp, index, profusely illustrated, excellent bibliography, map endpapers. VG. Signed by the author. An update of the first history of the Corps of Engineers written in 1974. Although this update covers only a few years, it was a time of great activity by the Corps, including "four massive navigation modernization structures on the Ohio River and eight multiple purpose dams and lakes on tributary streams within the lower Ohio River basin along with many smaller though not less important civil works projects." In addition, the District contended with regional flooding, tornadoes, blizzards, and other natural or manmade disasters. From the prologue: "Established on March 15, 1886, the Louisville District of the Corps of Engineers, United States Army, in 1983 had a dual mission: supporting the armed services for national defense and directing a broad water resource development program mandated by Congress. For the Army and Air Force it managed real estate, provided engineering services, performed construction, and prepared for military mobilization in five states: Kentucky, Indiana, Ohio Illinois, and Michigan. Its area of civil works jurisdiction could best be described as the Lower Ohio River basin, meaning the lower 542 miles of the Ohio River and all of its tributaries except the Cumberland and Tennessee rivers which were the responsibility of the Nashville Engineer District." A comprehensive and impressive work. Signed by Author(s).…
