Primarysources date August 2007 Image with unknown copyright status removed Image John hartford steamboat in a cornfield book.jpg thumb Steamboat in a Cornfield Steamboat in a Cornfield ISBN 0 517 56141 7 is a children s book written by musician and steamboat Pilotage pilot John Hartford . Plot Hartford tells the exciting true story of the incident in the life of an Ohio River steamboat around 1910. The boat, the Virginia , was subject to the rather fickle nature of the river at that time and ended up beached in a cornfield . This steamboat navigated the river before Lock water transport locks and dam s were constructed to help regulate the waterway. Hartford recounts the hard times faced by this particular steamboat company which pressured the captain to make an ill advised venture. The book uses old photos and maps to show the steamboat and trace its route. The accomplishment of what was seemingly an impossible task to refloat the steamboat is documented. The book ends with a epilogue coda , describing the fate of the characters. Steamboat in a Cornfield was published in 1986 by the Crown Publishing Group and it is out of print. In May 1991, the Gasoline Alley comic strip featured Hartford in a storyline that paralleled that of the children s book.
