In the style that has made him a favorite of readers and reviewers alike, McCullough weaves astonishing engineering feats, extraordinary medical advances, political power plays, heroic struggles, and human tragedies into an unforgettable portrait of a momentous undertaking. On December 12, 1999, the United States is returning ownership of the Canal to Panama. The accompanying press attention is sure to renew interest in McCullough's seminal work.
