Excerpt from The Nicaragua Canal and the Monroe Doctrine: A Political History of Isthmus Transit, With Special Reference to the Nicaragua Canal Project and the Attitude of the United States Government Thereto According to this method of enquiry, we had best begin our examination of the isthmus in the north. 5 z. The Among the southern plateaux of Mexico, Tehnante the Cordillera gradually assume the form 9 of a dividing ridge, and extend southeast through the isthmus of Tehuantepec, keeping close to the Pacific shore. In the crest of this range, mid way along the isthmus and exactly at its narrowest point, lie two mountain passes, Tarifa and Chivela, in close proximity to each other. Just north of these depressions are the headwaters of the Rio Coatzacoalcos, and from this point the winding river may be traced, down the gradual but continuous descent of the mountains, until it empties finally into the Bay of Campechy 011 the Atlantic side. The Pacific slope of the range is far more precipi. Tons at this point, but it, too, is furrowed by numer ous mountain streams, which disgorge themselves abruptly into the lagoons of the southern shore. Under such orographic and hydrographic conditions, therefore, a provisional transit-way may be laid out directly across the isthmus of Tehuantepec at this point. After the isthmus, this route has been named the 129t Route. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books. Find more at ...
