Ohio's Canal Era, Part 3: The Miami & Erie, The Milan Canal (VHS) Description
Ohio's Canal Era: Part 3 – The Miami & Erie / The Milan Canal (VHS Video Recording)
By Jack Gieck

Ohio's Canal Era brings to life an almost forgotten period in Ohio's early history, visiting restored sections of this vital 19th century inland transportation system, comparing these scenes with vintage photographs as old as photography itself. We learn how locks work, ride authentic replicas of mule-drawn boats, and hear from canal historians.

Part Three explores the Milan Canal in central Ohio, and the Miami & Erie Canal, which served the western part of the state between Toledo and Cincinnati. We ride the Ohio Historical Society's General Harrison in the bucolic Piqua Historical Area, examine artifacts in Middletown's Canal Museum, and see more antique photos.
