Report of the Select Committee on Transportation-routes to the Seaboard

Beschreibung

This is the "Report of the Select Committee on Transportation-routes to the Seaboard," a significant historical document reflecting 19th-century American transportation policy. Compiled in 1873 by the United States Senate's Select Committee, chaired by William Windom, the report examines the critical issue of efficient and cost-effective transportation routes to the seaboard. This study offers valuable insights into the challenges and debates surrounding railroad development, government regulation, and economic growth during a pivotal era in American history. The document provides detailed analysis and recommendations concerning the expansion and improvement of transportation infrastructure, particularly railroads, to facilitate the movement of goods and people across the country. For historians, economists, and policy analysts, this report offers a primary source perspective on the intersection of transportation, politics, and economic development in the late 19th century United States. It is a key resource for understanding the evolution of transportation networks and their impact on the nation's growth and prosperity.
