In den WarenkorbFlexible covers. Zustand: Very Good. First Collected edition. 12mo,208 pages, untrimmed wrappers, 1 short tear else fresh Fergus Historical Series no.18. Includes William Mosley Hall's speech, "A National Railroad to the Pacific," the first on this subject, Chicagoans focussed on getting support for the Illinois & Michigan Canal…, which would tie together the western waters of the Great Lakes with the great inland navigable rivers. "The meeting of that Convention raised the value of the Chicago property at once, and was the starting point of its unheard of prosperity - Wm. M. Hall, Commissioner." This is a much expanded, annotated and indexed treatment of the original 1847 publication. This convention caused Abraham Lincoln's first visit to Chicago, which he addressed on two occasions in its 3 days. [see Howes C371; Gutter, Between the Waters and the Wind, 14].
