How to control river flooding.

About the Book

The author's personal experience over 30 years living and working beside a river that floods. As well as doing engineering on other rivers with the potential of flood.

Mr. Mosby's engineering experience reflects the same knowledge that the Chinese used 4,000 years ago. They removed river rock and debris at a gallon at a time on their backs. This debris was then placed on the banks of the river to contain the river while it was flooding.
