ISBN-13: 9780691147383, 978-0691147383. The Big Ditch. The Canal's creation is often seen as an example of [url] triumphalism, but Noel Maurer and Carlos Yu reveal a more complex story. The authors show that the Canal produced great economic dividends for the first quarter-century following its opening, despite massive cost overruns and delays.
