Synopsis
The Ashokan Reservoir is a visual treat for anyone using the perimeter road, dividing weir, or the new Ashokan Rail Trail. The background of Catskill Mountain peaks, which frame 12 square miles of water, create a vista that makes the visitor wonder how this all came to be. The author wanted to bring the story of how this massive dam, miles of dikes, and water controls come together into a system that provides New York City residents 500 million gallons of water daily. Accolades go to the Board of Water Supply engineers who, in the 1900s, designed the project and to the contractors and their workers who, more than 100 years ago and mostly by hand, completed an undertaking nearly the magnitude of the Panama Canal. Construction started on September 30, 1907. In six years, on September 9, 1913, water storage began. The dam and dikes, followed by roads and bridges, completed the project in December 1917. Completion was ahead of schedule and under budget!

    Quick & easy transaction thanks to an excellent seller! Great communication. Book as described and pictured. Packaged well for shipping - book in bubble wrap in a very secure box. The seller also priced the book at a much more reasonable price than the publishing company or other sellers. Highly recommend this seller!

    This was an excellent eBay transaction. The seller properly pictured and described the book. The book was carefully packaged in bubble wrap and a stiff cardboard box to ensure it was not damaged in shipping. The book arrived on time and was tracked using the USPS tracking system. Thank you!
