Summary |
Chronicles one of the most incredible engineering feats of all time: construction of the 51-mile canal that took ten years to build and employed over 40,000 workers, 6,000 of whom died of yellow fever, malaria, and other horrors. An earlier, nine-year attempt by the French ended in failure and cost 20,000 lives. |
