Water Trails West . Members of The Western Writers of American have each written an informal factual portrayal in text and pictures of how travel and transportation by water opened and developed the American West. From the first explorations by canoe to the decline of the steamboat era, Water Trails of the West provides a lively history of the rivers, lakes, and canals that facilitated the exploration of the vast American continent. Nearly two hundred rare photographs- many never before published- accompany the text.
