Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Hartford in 1912: Story of the Capitol City, Present and Prospective The Purpose of this reference book s to call the attention of the world at large to Hartford and its people; to show through picture and story the city s remarkable progress; and to proclaim, far and wide, its many opportunities. This story of Hartford has been supplemented by special articles by the leading staff writers of The Hartford Post and by a series of tables and charts, so that the conclusions can not be reasonably questioned. The entire aim of the publication is to promote public spirit and confidence, to justify the faith owners now have in Hartford properties, to acquaint investors with the possibilities this city holds forth, and renew the proud feeling all loyal citizens have for the future greatness of our city. This is not and exhaustive history, nor a guide book, but a careful study of the relative position and present conditions of Hartford published with a view to further development along all lines. ´No one person knows Hartford and no one person can possibly known its many virtues today. The city has grown too large for that. Neither can the story of the city as a whole be told in a volume this size. But the knowledge imparted here, which has been told in a brief and concise manner, will be sufficient to show to whom and to what Hartford owes its greatness. The credit for this publication is due, J. E. Dennis, the Editor of the Post, Dr. Henry McManus, C. C. Hemenway, Miss Julia M. Traver, (Kathernic Kip), C. E. Wilson and James W. Connell, all members of the editorial staff of the Hartford Post. And last, but not least, to the Patrons whose names appear elsewhere and to whom this volume is respectfully dedicated. It is these loyal sons of Hartford who have made possible the success of the publication and to these self same Patrons, Hartford owes much of its present high standing and remarkable progress. In the words of the immortal Rip Van Winkle, "May they live long and prosper." And in closing, the publisher desire to say, that if this volume has told its tale so well that it can interest one new industry to locate here, or one capitalist to make further investment in its great opportunities, or open the eyes of the public to the city´s remarkable possibilities, then its mission has been fulfilled.
