| 摘要： | When summer sets in on the Upper Ohio River, heat and humidity tend to show up with it. In the pre-air-condition-ing days of a bygone era, a favorite way to beat the heat was to take a short trip on an excursion boat and enjoy the breeze afforded by the movement of the vessel. Louisville and Cincinnati had home-based steamers that the populace could always count on for them to take advantage of. Other towns within the valley eagerly anticipated the arrival of the tramp excursion steamers that would appear in warm weather to provide such service. Moonlite at 8:30, a delightful book by Capts. Clarke C. '"Doc" Hawley and Alan L. Bates, provides great insight into this time of river history. |
