The Panama Canal was the costliest undertaking in history; its
completion in 1914 marked the beginning of the "American Century."
Panama Fever draws on contemporary accounts, bringing the
experience of those who built the canal vividly to life.
Politicians engaged in high-stakes diplomacy in order to influence
its construction. Meanwhile, engineers and workers from around the
world rushed to take advantage of high wages and the chance to be a
part of history. Filled with remarkable characters, Panama Fever is
an epic history that shows how a small, fiercely contested strip of
land made the world a smaller place and launched the era of
American global dominance.
