power of water for years. Much of the growth of early colonial American industry can be attributed to hydropower. Because fuel such as coal and wood were not readily available to inland cities‚ American settlers were forced to turn to other alternatives. Falling water was ideal for powering sawmills and grist mills. As coal became a better-developed source of fuel‚ however‚ the importance of hydropower decreased. When canals began to be built off of the Mississippi River‚ inland cities became linked
