Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Rambles in the Far West The matter contained in the following pages descriptive of the tour made by the members of the National Editorial Association of the United States in the summer of 1905 through the Middle West, West, Southwest and Pacific Coast of the United States, was originally published in the form of letters, by the author, in the Democratic Standard, at Hollidaysburg, Pennsylvania. Many of our friends of the Association, and others, who were much interested, but were unable to read all the letters, urged that they be collected and published in book form, so that they might be more generally read and circulated hence - this book. The general mass of our citizens have but vague and indefinite ideas of the great resources, vast extent, unlimited possibilities and golden opportunities of our great land beyond the Missisippis River. If any of our readers shall obtain any pleasure, satisfaction, profit and better knowledge of the Greatest Republic on the face of the earth by the perusal of these pages we will be well repaid for our labor. Since these letters went into print the awful earthquake disaster occurred at San Francisco; therefore the parts relating to that city and the illustrations thereof will have peculiar interest and value. We desire to acknowledge our appreciation of the courtesies extended us, in the matter of securing illustrations, by the Southern Pacific, Denver and Rio Grande, Rock Island, Santa Fe, Union Pacific and the Missouri, Kansas and Texas Railroads, and the Oregon Railroad and Navigation Company.
