Winner of the National Book Award for history, The Path Between the Seas tells the story of the men and women who fought against all odds to fulfill the 400-year-old dream of constructing an aquatic passageway between the Atlantic and Pacific oceans. It is a story of astonishing engineering feats, tremendous medical accomplishments, political power plays, heroic successes, and tragic failures. McCullough expertly weaves the many strands of this momentous event into a captivating tale. Like his masterful, Pulitzer Prize-winning biography John Adams, David McCullough's The Path Between the Seas has the sweep and vitality of a great novel. This audiobook is a must-listen for anyone interested in American history, international intrigue, and human drama.

A masterpiece. Amongst all the figures involved with the grandeur project, I most admire John Stevens. McCullough 在Afterword也给了Stevens 最重要的位置。He who lay the ground concludes, "I believe that we are but children picking up pebbles on the shore of the boundless ocean..." Finished on 4/20/2014
评分内容不错,废话太多。

评分真是事无巨细,一网打尽。但感觉美国人接手后的修建过程相对简略了一点点。
