About this book
Steam Navigation and Its Relation to the Commerce of Canada and the United States treats steam navigation in relation to commerce, with illustrations and portraits. The account of steam routes describes mail steamers travelling from Liverpool to Brazil and River Plate, continuing to the west coast of America through the Straits of Magellan.
The Royal William is described as making successful voyages between Quebec and Halifax, calling at intermediate ports before a voyage across the Atlantic. The account also records the Britannia as the first vessel of the Cunard fleet to enter Halifax harbour, alongside the line's fortnightly calls on the way to Boston.
