How did the steamboat help society?
Steamboats originated in and were built in the north. The most immediate effect was that waterways became newly envisioned "highways". Steamboats meant people and goods could be shipped by land to Pittsburgh, PA. Steamboats were being built at Fayette County in SW PA below Pittsburgh. Once people and goods reached Pittsburgh, steamboats traveled down The Ohio River going across Ohio, and eventually reach the Mississippi River. From there, they could go north to reach the Great Lakes or south to the Gulf of Mexico. Prior to steamboats, men depended on their muscles; sometimes it took days just to get back up stream because they were going against the current. They used rope and manpower to pull ferry rafts across rivers. Steamboats were able to travel both ways on a river, making it easy to transport goods and also more efficiently, and much easier. They are also important because they could transport people across water. There are barely any steamboats left, and the ones that are left are now used for tourist trips, such as at Pittsburgh's Three Rivers.
