Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from A Brief Sketch of the Past, Present and Prospects of Vincennes These are the field results but not likely to be changed by a tenth of a second of arc by the final calculations. The City of Vincennes is located on the left bank of the Wabash River, on the western boundary of the State of Indiana, the river only separating it from the State of Illinois. It is distant 192 miles west of Cincinnati, Ohio, 150 miles East of St. Louis, Missouri, 236 miles South of Chicago, 51 miles north of the Ohio River at Evansville, and 117 miles south west of Indianapolis, the capital of Indiana. The city is located on high ground beyond the possible reach of inundation, and is bounded on the north east and south west by beautiful and fertile prairie lands, and on the south east and north west by a picturesque range of hills, covered with forest trees, and presenting an attractive and pleasing landscape view. The location is peculiarly fortunate and safe, occupying as it does a level depression, surrounded on all sides by elevated grounds and hills, which protect it from the chilling blasts of winter, or the destructive storms of summer so prevalent and desolating in portions of the West.
