Description:
Text engl.- First published in 1944 to unanimous praise, James Thomas Flexner's Steamboats Come True has indeed done more than stand the test of time. It remains a splendidly myth-debunking but celebratory account of 'the first American invention of world-shattering importance'--the steamboat.
