Paperback. Zustand: New. Print on Demand. This book, originally published in 1850, provides a detailed exploration of Cannelton, Indiana, a town named for its abundant coal resources. In it, the author proclaims Cannelton to be the ideal location for manufacturing due to its central location at the junction of the Ohio River and the lower Wabash, its proximity to a seemingly inexhaustible supply of coal, its easily accessible timber resources, and its healthy climate.
