This slow journey from Moscow to Vladivostock followed by a dash into the forbidden land of Manchuria is a priceless and riveting read. Covers stained age toning to pages slight foxing. Good.

PANAMA L’œuvre gigantesque
20 photogravures et une carte vol broché, 200x140, couverture illustrée, bon état général, 251pp Paris Pierre Roger éditeur, ss date vers 1940/50 Livre écrit par John Foster Fraser, un journaliste et écrivain britannique. Publié en 1913, cet ouvrage traite de la construction du canal de Panama, l'une des réalisations les plus importantes de l'ingénierie du début du XXe siècle. Le livre de Fraser explore les défis et les réalisations de la construction du canal de Panama, en mettant l'accent sur les aspects techniques, les enjeux politiques et les implications économiques de ce projet colossal. Il décrit les efforts entrepris pour surmonter les obstacles géographiques, tels que les montagnes et les marécages, ainsi que les problèmes liés à la santé des ouvriers, notamment la malaria et la fièvre jaune. Fraser relate également l'histoire politique et diplomatique entourant la construction du canal, y compris les tensions entre les États-Unis et la Colombie, ainsi que les négociations pour obtenir les droits et le contrôle de la zone du canal. Il met en évidence les personnalités clés impliquées dans le projet, comme Ferdinand de Lesseps, l'initiateur de la première tentative de construction du canal de Panama, et les ingénieurs américains qui ont finalement réussi à mener le projet à son terme. L'ouvrage de Fraser offre un récit détaillé et captivant de la construction du canal de Panama, qui a eu un impact majeur sur le commerce maritime et les relations internationales. Il permet de mieux comprendre les défis techniques, les sacrifices humains et les réalisations impressionnantes associées à cette entreprise monumentale. ref/78/2
