Panamanian
History
-
The Path Between the Seas: The Creation of the Panama Canal, 1870-1914,
by David McCullough. This is one of the most fantastic non-fiction
pieces we've ever read on any topic, period. It starts with early
European exploration of what is now Panama, includes the first attempt by
the French to cut a sea-level canal, and ends with the American Success at
cutting the current canal. Upon finishing this book, one of us flew to
Panama City to take the all-day train tour of the Canal. Once you
start reading, you will have a hard time putting it down. The book is
that good!
-
How Wall Street Created a Nation: J.P. Morgan, Teddy Roosevelt, and
the Panama Canal, by Ovidio Diaz Espino. Illustrates how a
combination of financial gain and arrogant American imperialism culminated
in the building of the Panama Canal.
-
Panama, by Carlos Ledson Miller. Captures the sweep of
Panama's tumultuous history. Moving between past and present -- from
pivotal events in Panama's past to the American withdrawal from the Canal in
1999 -- this is the fast-paced saga of a man and a nation searching for
their identities.

Panamanian Environment

Gwynne. This is the first paperback version of the second edition of

Highlights the most interesting places and activities for adventure
travelers. Includes vivid scenic descriptions of Panama -- from the

Panama-Related Fiction
-
The Tailor of Panama, by John Le Carre. A spy novel set in
Panama, where a plot is in place to make void the Panama Treaty, which would
return control of the Panama Canal to the Panamanians in 1999. Even
though 1999 has come and passed, and the Canal is safely in the hands of the
Panamanians, this is still a good read.
