巴拿马运河的修建是人类历史上最宏伟、最具戏剧性、最气势磅礴的探险壮举之一。它跨越了近半个世纪,从法国为追求荣耀而揭开序幕,到一战前夕由美国最终竣工,其调动的人力、国力与资金规模前所未见。除几次世界大战外,这是全球范围内开展过的规模最大、耗资最多的单项工程,深刻影响了全世界数以万计人的命运。本书将这场伴随着无数心碎并最终迎来胜利的史诗级探险栩栩如生地重现于读者眼前。

我很喜欢那种讲述某家公司或某件事物历史的书,比如 David McCullough 的《通向两洋之路》(The Path Between the Seas)、Jon Gertner 的《创意工厂》(The Idea Factory)或者 Dava Sobel 的《经度》(Longitude)。但我不知道这种特定类型叫什么名字,所以很难搜到新书。HN 上有什么同类书推荐吗?其他……
I've enjoyed books narrating the history of a company or a thing, like David McCullough's The Path Between the Seas, Jon Gertner's The Idea Factory or Dava Sobel's Longitude. But, missing a name for this particular genre, I have a hard time finding new entries. Does HN have anything of that kind to recommend? Other…
……很棒。强烈推荐。埃利斯的《建国先父》(Founding Brothers)也非常好(而且篇幅不长)。David McCullough 著有好几部极其震撼的美国历史书,包括《约翰·亚当斯》、《1776》、《莱特兄弟》和《通向两洋之路》。
…good. I strongly recommend it. Founding Brothers, by Ellis, is also very good (and short). David McCullough has several tremendous US history books, including John Adams, 1776, The Wright Brothers, The Path Between the Seas.

如果有人想知道巴拿马运河是怎么开通的(在那种地理环境下,因为疾病、土壤和水流问题,开凿运河有多艰难),可以读读《通向两洋之路》(The Path between the Seas)http://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/ASIN/0671244094/bobsutton-...
For those who wonder how Panama Canal opened up (how hard it is to open a canal at that geography due to diseases, soil, water), you may want read The Path between the Seas http://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/ASIN/0671244094/bobsutton-...

格伦·库克的《黑色佣兵团》[1]。一部风格硬朗的低魔奇幻小说,讲的是一群多少惹人喜爱的底层雇佣兵恶棍。David McCullough 的《通向两洋之路》[2]。详细记述了巴拿马运河的修建历史,从法国人的最初尝试、惨痛破产,到所有权转移过程中的政治与商业权谋……
The Black Company by Glen Cook[1]. Gritty low-fantasy story about a more-or-less lovable band of misfit mercenaries. The Path Between the Seas by David McCullough[2]. Account of the history of the building of the Panama Canal, from the first French attempts, their collapse, the political and business machinations to transfer ownership to the…
