First Published in 1906 by the noted historian Archer Butler
Hulbert, this excellent work chronicles the events that occurred
from the time of Celeron's Expedition through the years of early
settlement when canoes and flatboats were the main mode of
transportation. Next came the steamboat era when Sternwheelers and
Sidewheelers plied up and down the great Ohio River from Pittsburg
to the Mississippi. This book is not your average "dry" history
book. It is filled with stories and first hand accounts of the
people who lived and participated in these events that made the
Ohio River a true course to empire. This book is part of the
Historical Collection of Badgley Publishing Company and has been
transcribed from the original. The original contents have been
edited and corrections have been made to original printing,
spelling and grammatical errors when not in conflict with the
author's intent to portray a particular event or interaction.
Annotations have been made and additional contents have been added
by Badgley Publishing Company in order to clarify certain
historical events or interactions and to enhance the author's
content. Photos and illustrations from the original have been
touched up, enhanced and sometimes enlarged for better viewing.
