Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Iowa as It Is in 1855: A Gazetteer for Citizens, and a Hand-Book for Emmigrants After a careful arrangement of information compiled by piecemeal, during a twelve month passed in the editorial chair, and during that period subjected to constant revision and pruning - after the receipt from the several counties in our State, of the latest statistical intelligence relating to each - and as the general result of a year´s attention and study - it is that the Author has been enabled to prepare his work for the public eye. He is aware that an occasional error may have crept into it, or that here and there a piece of information may have been omitted, but he trusts and believes that the pains he has taken to avoid these have not been in vain, and that if any are found, they will be as few as possible, and in no case, of great importance. It is the design and aim of the Author in presenting his book to the public, to supply a want that has long been felt, and which is being daily expressed, as well by the present resident in Iowa, as by the countless throng still pouring westward, and the thousands in the crowded East, whose thoughts and aspirations turn towards us. Iowa holds out to the emigrant inducements such as no other State in our Union can boast, nor is any other at this day being so largely flooded by the onward tide of immigration. Her resources are inexhaustible, her advantages are beyond the scope of calculation, and her claims upon the attention of every class and sex of the energetic, the industrious and the ambitious, are as peremptory as they are vast. Yet is there a deplorable scarcity of such published information as shall set forth these latent sources of wealth.
