THE PANAMA GUIDE Copyright, 1912 JOHN O. COLLINS " I. C. C. PRESS QUARTERMASTER'S DEPARTMENT INTRODUCTION This Guide Book answers most of the questions that I have been asked during the past four years regarding Panama and the Panama Canal. It is a compilation from reliable sources. Only a few of the many books on the Panama Canal are reliable, and in my text I have quoted only these: "Panama" by Albert Edwards, "Panama" in Porter's Progress of the Nations Series, "Old Panama" by Dr. C. L. G. Anderson, the Panama Government's school history by Sosa and Arce, the annual reports of the Isthmian Canal Commission, and "The Canal Record" are especially commended to those who wish a deeper knowledge of Panama and the Canal than this guide book can give.
