Panama


Book Description
Helps to find out: how Panama's 'geographic destiny' as the stepping-stone between oceans has shaped its history over the centuries; when the Spanish carved out the Camino Real-the Royal Road- expressly for the purpose of hauling gold over the isthmus; and, which country tried to dig a canal through the isthmus first, before the United States.
