Not so famous, however, is Shreve’s first steamboat, the “Enterprise,” and its role in American his- tory. Wary of the Fulton-Livingston monopoly over trade on the Mississippi River, Shreve realized the necessity of building a superior steam vessel that could outperform the existing ones. As a result, Shreve formed a partnership with entrepreneur Daniel French to design such a boat. The result of their work was the steamboat “Enterprise.” On Dec. 1, 1814, she left on her maiden voyage with 29-year-old Shreve as her captain. This first voyage was no leisurely trip. A precious cargo of munitions and supplies was desperately needed by General Andrew Jackson’s troops in New Orleans. The long trip down the Mississippi was a success, and within two weeks the cargo was safely delivered to Jackson’s camp. Shreve’s fearless attitude and the dependability of the “Enterprise” were cru- cial factors in the victory at the Battle of New Orleans in the War of 1812. Now, as the student newspaper of Captain Shreve High School, The Enterprise strives to emulate the fearlessness and dependability of Shreve and his ship in reporting the John Sella, Audrey Jones news important to you, the students of Captain Shreve.
