• Excerpt from Savannah: Her Trade, Commerce and Industries, 1883-4: Manufacturing Advantages, Business and Transportation Facilities, and a Delineation of Representative Industrial and Commercial Establishments of the Forest City of the South. Historical and Descriptive ReviewMuch of our present greatness and future hopes we owe to the energizing spirit of Commerce. It has prompted to negotiations, and sustained our govern ment in struggles which have expanded our country to its present amplitude. It acquired the debouchure of the Mississippi it carried the flag of our Union across the Rocky Mountains, and planted it at the mouth of the Columbia, and upon the golden hills of California. It must preserve what it has acquired, for we have, and can have. No other assured hope of continued union. Heaven has, so far, bidden discovery and enterprise to keep pace with and consolidate our growth. The canal, the railroad, the application of steam to ocean navigation, and the magnetic telegraph and telephone, will suffice to hold intact the holy bond of union.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
