Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Report of the Commissioners of the Hydrographic Survey of the State of Maine, 1867
The railway, the great agency of modern civilization, overcomes natural boundaries, enabling communities separated hitherto by all but impassable barriers, to become united as one, creating not only new social and political relations, but new centers of com merce and trade.
