Abstract
MR. FIEGEL describes clearly the course of the canal now in process of construction by the United States Government; also the engineering1 works and machinery, and the commercial and political aspects of the enterprise. His book will provide German readers with an informative account of the position about a year ago of what in three years' time promises to be one of the most remarkable human schemes ever brought to a successful conclusion.
