Using the unsuccessful 19th century attempts to connect the James river and western waters to the Great Kanawha River as a background, Kemp (history, Eberly College and former professor of civil engineering) provides an industrial archaeology of this waterway and the major 19th and early 20th century civil engineering innovations that helped move bulk cargo along nearly 100 miles of the Great Kanawha River.
