The New Niagara: Tourism, Technology, and the Landscape of Niagara Falls, 1776–1917
William R. Irwin
This work looks at the appeal of Niagara Falls to the Americans as an icon of progress and technology. It was in the mid-1800s, when engineers "conquered" the Falls, that it captured the American imagination, and the transformation emerged as both a national shame and a symbol of modern America.
