Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from The Rand-McNally Hand Book to the Pan-American Exposition: Buffalo and Niagara Falls In order to secure the most satisfactory and intelligent results from an Exposition such as that now being held at Buffalo, one of two things is necessary - either to be thoroughly familiar with the ground or to possess an accurate and comprehensive guide book. The first of these conditions is impossible to thousands of people because of lack of time, and they must therefore rely on their own resources. Our wide experience in compiling guide-books, and our numerous publications relative to the World´s Columbian Exposition at Chicago has enabled us to correctly judge as to just what is and what is not necessary to the needs of those who attend these fairs, and we issue this Handbook with the knowledge that nothing has been omitted that will give visitors to the Pan-American Exposition all desired information. To insure an accurate description of the buildings and their exhibits, and secure other information from reliable resources, we sent our special representatives to Buffalo and they obtained everything possible that would in any way be of interest or benefit to visitors. As a result we have compiled a guide book that cannot be excelled for accuracy, completeness and reliability. The matter is so arranged that it may be conveniently followed, the attractions being placed in consecutive order, according to their importance. The half-tones illustrating the text, and the diagrams of the exhibit buildings are from original photographs and drawings made especially for this guide. In submitting this hand-book to the public we do so with the satisfaction of knowing that it is complete in every respect, and are confident that it will answer every requirement for which it is intended.
