Inhaltsangabe

This book is an early text on the engineering of river banks to control flooding, with a particular focus on the Mississippi River in the United States. Levees were first built in the area to reclaim land for agriculture in the 19th century, and the author, William Hewson, shares his knowledge of the history and best practices of levee building at the time. The author presents a concise and accessible overview of the key factors involved in the design and construction of levees. This book is an invaluable resource for understanding the history and engineering of levees, and for anyone interested in the history of land reclamation and flood control.
