He provides a thorough analysis of the geography, climate, and topography of the area, as well as the economic and political factors that would affect the construction of such a project.The book is divided into several sections, including a description of the Isthmus of Tehuantepec, its history, and its potential as a commercial route. Moro also discusses the various proposals that had been made for a canal or railway, including their advantages and disadvantages.Observations In Relation To A Communication Between The Atlantic And Pacific Oceans, Through The Isthmus Of Tehuantepec is an important historical document that sheds light on the early attempts to establish a connection between the two oceans.
