After the Civil War a convergence of circumstances provided Galveston with an unparalleled opportunity for growth and development. Galveston and the Great West traces Galveston's emergence as a key American port city. From the initial conception of a deep water port capable of handling the largest ships through the thirty-five years of effort it took to realize the dreams of a such a harbor, author Earle Young describes the technical and political struggles. Emphasizing the critical roles of technology and enterprise, Young shows how engineers, business leaders, and civic leaders enlisted the support of officials in the Rocky Mountain and Plains states to win federal appropriations, create a harbor channel, and build jetties and railroads, creating a land-sea transportation network to serve the developing western regions of the nation.
