Early steamboats shape trans-Appalachian rivers tale
The Roosevelt steamboat launched in Pittsburgh in 1810 carried a single passenger on its maiden voyage to New Orleans and later operated Natchez to New Orleans until wrecked. The 1816 Washington by Henry Shreve surpassed it in size and speed, and Shreve’s snag removal craft spurred rapid sidewheelers growth on the Ohio and Mississippi, reaching 200 by 1834 and about 2,000 by 1846.
