Illinois and Michigan CanalIn 1673, Louis Jolliet and Fr. Jacques Marquette were the first Europeans to explore the Mississippi and the Illinois River Valleys. Their explorations took them through what is now northern Illinois. These early explorers of the region recognized the importance of a connection between Lake Michigan and the Illinois waterways. Constructed between 1836 and 1848, the Illinois and Michigan (I&M) Canal began the final link in a national plan to connect

In 1673, Louis Jolliet and Fr. Jacques Marquette were the first Europeans to explore the Mississippi and the Illinois River Valleys. Their explorations took them through what is now northern Illinois. These early explorers of the region recognized the importance of a connection between Lake Michigan and the Illinois waterways. Constructed between 1836 and 1848, the Illinois and Michigan (I&M) Canal began the final link in a national plan to connect different regions of the North American continent via natural and man-made waterways. Once completed in 1848, the nearly 100-mile-long canal created a new transportation corridor that linked the Eastern United States, the Great Lakes, the Mississippi River, and the Gulf of Mexico. During the 19th century, the I&M Canal helped launch Chicago on its path to urban greatness and fostered the growth of a dozen towns along its banks that would soon industrialize the region. This book will open the reader to the unique flavor of the region and the towns and communities along its route, as well as the nature of commerce and water transportation of the 19th and 20th centuries.

Excellent quality for an excellent price tag
Color: Blue, Size: Medium
The suit arrived in 2 days after ordering; it arrived in excellent condition, was wrapped in clear plastic, however it was only in one package and should have been wrapped in a second layer in case of accidentally opening during the shipping process. The suit was folded very neatly, I'll keep it as is as it's a gift for a friend of mine who is a musician and he will use it for performance on stage. The size was M and correct. Unfortunately, it has arrived in the wrong color, I ordered blue, and purple has been delivered. I hope, he likes it anyway. I'll keep it as it is too inconvenient for me to exchange it and ship it back to the sender.

Beautiful suit
Color: Purple, Size: Small
Suit is better than I expected. Bought this for my son for prom. The sequins POP. I am highly satisfied with this purchase. My son is 5'6 about 130 lbs and I ordered a size XS and it fit perfect. The only complaint I have is there is a hole for a button but no button is attached to the suit. Besides that, GET IT.
