To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
In preparation for the project, he had amassed a formidable array of equipment, including three tugs, eight Mississippi River stern-wheelers, more than two dozen motor launches ranging from five to fifty horsepower, a dozen dredges, eight concrete-mixing machines to be installed on barges, two more concrete mixers for land, nine pile drivers for underwater supports and two more for land-based track pile driving, ten power shovels, a specialized catamaran for use in building forms for concrete pi...ers, a pair of large steel barges and scores of smaller ones, several locomotive cranes, a floating machine shop, more than a dozen houseboats of varying sizes, and two oceangoing steamships.

As word began to circulate about the scope of this assemblage, independent estimates of the costs of the project soared, with a reporter from the Brooklyn Eagle setting the ultimate price tag at more than $50 million.
