The Steamboat ""Montana"" and the Opening of the West: History, Excavation, and Architecture - New Perspectives on Maritime History & Nautical Archaeology

The Montana was a shining example of modern design and technological sophistication when it made its maiden voyage in 1879. But it is remembered for its ironic end: only five years after it was launched, the Montana struck a railroad bridge near Bridgeton, Missouri, and sank. This book documents its construction and use.
