An old engraving showing the workings of a side-wheeler paddle steamer. It is from a Victorian mechanical engineering book of the 1880s. This version is the North River Steamboat (or the ‘Clermont’). It is widely regarded as the world's first vessel to succeed in the use of steam propulsion for commercial water transportation. She was built in 1807 by inventor and entrepreneur Robert Fulton (1765–1815). It operated on the Hudson River – at that time often known as the North River – between New York City and Albany, New York, USA. A paddle steamer is a steamship or steamboat powered by steam.
