In 1920, after some thirty-nine years of problems with disease, high costs, and politics, the Panama
Canal was officially opened, finally linking the Atlantic and the Pacific Oceans by allowing ships to pass
through the fifty-mile canal zone instead of traveling some seven thousand miles around Cape Horn. It takes a
ship approximately eight hours to complete the trip through the canal and costs an average of fifteen thousand
dollars, one-tenth of what it would cost an average ship to go around Cape Horn. More than fifteen thousand
