The Land Divided , The World United : The Story of the Panama Canal

On August 15, 1914, a dream, centuries old, came true when the United States opened the Panama Canal. A voyage that had meant 7,000 miles around the Cape was now only 50 miles across the Isthmus of Panama, from the Atlantic to the Pacific. The Canal divided the land, but it united the world. From the time of Marco Polo and Columbus to Gorgas and Goethals, man's quest for a westward passage to fabled Cathay led to one of the greatest engineering feats in history. The story of the Panama Canal is not only a story of adventure and adventurers, of greed, lust and battle, it is also the story of man's victory over nature, of dedication, loyalty and unbelievable heroism.
