Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from The Wonders of Niagara: A Visit to America´s Greatest Cataract With a Description of the Points of Interest in a Region of Scenic Grandeur and Beauty America is the land of scenic beauty. Nature has stretched across the Western Continent a panorama of river and lake, mountain and valley, that has no parallel in any other country on the globe. Other countries are rich in historical and legendary lore. Other countries, indeed, have wonderful monuments to the artistic and architectural genius of man. But America has all and more than these embraced within an area that presents every conformation of the earth from lofty mountain to deep canyon, from majestic river to lakes of incomparable grandeur. In fact there may be found within the borders of New York State alone every conceivable variety of scenic wonder, from deep-cut, stone-walled canyons to pine-topped mountains of granite; from inland seas, on which ride a mighty commerce, to rivers between whose pictured shores there roll on toward the ocean the crystal waters from a thousand springs and limpid lakes. All these have fascinated and enthralled visitors from every land. Each has been embalmed in story, legend and song. Each has engaged the loving tribute of artist and poet. America´s Greatest Scenic Wonder But of all the scenic wonders with which Nature has endowed this favored land of ours none there is in all the gorgeous panorama of geologic grandeur that is comparable to Niagara. Such a blending of the beautiful and awe-inspiring is seen nowhere else in all the world. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
