Robert Fulton
Robert Fulton (1765-1815) was an American engineer and inventor who developed the world's first commercially successful steamboat, the Clermont. In 1807, it traveled the Hudson River from New York City to Albany, proving that steam-powered vessels could reliably navigate against wind and current. By freeing river transport from dependence on natural forces, Fulton transformed inland commerce and economic development across America. He also designed the Nautilus, the first practical submarine, for Napoleon.
