Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from The New West: As Related to the Christian College Between the valley of the Mississippi - the Old West - and the Pacific slope lies the New West, a mountain plateau from three to six thousand feet high, upon which rise the Rocky Mountains. Take Wyoming, Colorado, New Mexico, Arizona, Utah, Nevada, Idaho, and Montana; then add a minute fragment of fifty thousand square miles from western Dakota, comprising the Black Hills region, and you have the New West, - one third part of the United States, - as large as all that portion of our country east of the Mississippi. Colorado is equal in size to Switzerland, New England, New Jersey, Delaware, and Maryland. Maps of Pennsylvania and New York would need to add Maryland and Rhode Island to cover Colorado. Ohio could lie down twice within the boundaries of the Centennial State, and then leave room enough for West Virginia and Connecticut. Kansas and Iowa together are not its match in square miles. Colorado is equal in size to Old England and New. Men team goods from Colorado Springs through Ute Pass, following a longer road than that from Boston to Philadelphia, and yet they do not go out of their own State.
