About the Book
A careful chronicle of steamboating as it was developed and as it became - for a short time - the best way to move people and goods into the frontier midwest. The detailed, illustrated work identifies and traces the course of the stern- and side-wheelers that plied the waters of the St. Croix during the exciting span of history between the 1850s and the 1920s, heyday of steamboating.
