Now playing on The Historians Podcast: Episode 272

A long stretch of New York’s Mohawk River became a canal in the early 1900s. Bridge dams made that possible and are still in use today. Michael Riley, author of the book “Bridge Dams on the Mohawk: David A. Watt’s Marvelous Creation,” is the guest on this week’s Historians Podcast.
