Surprisingly interesting and fun reading.:
I highly recommend this book. I was assigned Steamboats on the Western Rivers in a graduate level course at University of Missouri-St. Louis about ten years ago. I'm now re-reading it for the second time...it is just that good! I was glad to see it reprinted in paperback. When I first read it I had to get it through inter-library loan from Rolla, Missouri...there were no copies in St. Louis or Chicago! This new printing is most welcome. If you have an interest in Westward Expansion, the Civil War, or the growth of technology then this book should be on your "must read" list.
