En la Memoria Albear realizó un estudio de los antecedentes y las posibilidades de aprovechamiento de los acueductos anteriores efectuó un cálculo de la dotación de agua para la ciudad valoró las dificultades para lograr la obra de captación en Vento y propuso el trazado del canal hasta el depósito. Atendiendo a la extraordinaria complejidad de la obra y a las dificultades de su ejecución en el convulso período de la >Guerra de los diez años Albear elaboró y presentó en 1876 dos nuevos documentos: la "Memoria del Proyecto de depósito de recepción y de distribución de las obras del Canal de Vento" y la "Memoria del Proyecto de la distribución del agua de Vento en La Habana". En la primera valoraba los aspectos relativos a la ubicación altura capacidad y dimensiones del depósito así como otros aspectos tecnológicos; mientras que en la segunda se argumentaban las condiciones requeridas para un buen sistema de distribución dividido en dos partes interior y exterior así como las particularidades y aportes de cada una de ellas. La inauguración del Acueducto de Albear denominado finalmente así tras la muerte de su artífice el 22 de octubre de 1887 no ocurriría hasta seis años más tarde el 23 de enero de 1893 en medio de condiciones políticas y económicas sumamente adversas plagadas de dificultades no sólo topográficas y tecnológicas sino incluso higiénicas en momentos en que las llamadas "fiebres de Vento" diezmaban a sus constructores. La etapa final de las obras a cargo de la firma Runkle Smith and Co. de Nueva York y encabezada por el ingeniero Sherman Gould por la parte norteamericana fue dirigida de acuerdo con los proyectos originales por un discípulo y continuador de Albear el coronel de ingenieros >Joaquín Ruiz. No obstante su artífice llegó a tener en vida la satisfacción de ver su proyecto premiado con Medalla de Oro en la Exposición Universal de >París de 1878 donde se la consideró como una obra maestra de la ingeniería del siglo XIX.

A view of an American warship in Havana harbor likely taken prior to the outbreak of hostilities between the United States and Spain in early 1898. The photographers Leach and Patterson of Calle San Rafael published several views of Cuba at this time mostly of bucolic scenes around Havana and its environs.

1908rif. 228161908. Ober Frederick A. A Guide to the West Indies and Bermudas. New York: Dodd Mead & Company 1908. First edition. First printing. 525 pages with five fold-out color maps and numerous black-and-white photographic illustrations. Original red cloth stamped in gilt as issued with no dust jacket. 8vo. An early 20th-century travel guide reflecting U.S. and European imperial tourism in the Caribbean at the height of American expansion following the Spanish-American War. Ober a prolific writer on the Caribbean and Latin America interweaves geography natural history and colonial ethnography offering a period perspective into the ways tourists imperial authorities and travel publishers framed the predominantly Black Afro-Caribbean and Creole cultures of the region during the Jim Crow era. This guide includes detailed chapters on Cuba Puerto Rico Jamaica Trinidad Barbados Guadeloupe Martinique and dozens of other island territories along with sections on "The Bermudas" "The Lesser Antilles" "The South Coast of Cuba" and "A Glimpse of South America." The contents pages visible here show Ober's systematic movement through the archipelago giving each island a discrete treatment with notes on climate agriculture transportation and colonial governance. As Ober writes in his introduction the West Indies form "a region of infinite variety" a phrase that reflects both genuine admiration and the period's exoticizing tone common to pre-WWI travel literature. The fold-out maps chart shipping routes railways ports and political boundaries at a moment when the United States had recently taken possession of Puerto Rico 1898 and solidified its influence in Cuba and the broader Caribbean basin. Light rubbing to cloth with slight sunning to spine; corners mildly worn. Five fold-out maps complete crisp and clean one with a minor tear near margins. Interior exceptionally bright with no writing or markings; binding tight. Overall very good condition. A well-preserved first printing of an important Caribbean travel guide valuable for scholars of U.S. imperial history Caribbean studies tourism studies and the racial-cultural representation of the West Indies during the early American century. unknown
