Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Rand-McNally Guide to the Great Northwest It is the purpose of this Guide to make that extensive territory, termed "The Great Northwest," familiar to those who as yet have but a vague idea of its vastness, its attractions, and it resources, and to give the homeseeker and the investor reliable information, obtained after a thorough investigation of every part of this great country. President Jefferson builded better than he knew when, in 1803, he inaugurated the Lewis and Clark Expedition - an enterprise that has resulted in immense benefits to the nation, commercially and socially, creating new spheres for the investor and congenial surroundings for the homeseeker. The only wonder is that greater numbers of those who are to-day eking out a bare existence in cities, where the human congestion is a menace to health and a bar to wealth, do not realize the existing conditions - that in the Great West life may be made worth the living, a competency may be earned in a few years, and, independent, breathing the pure air of heaven, surrounded by Nature´s marvels, happiness and comfort may be enjoyed to the fullest extent. It is only within a very few years that people of the eastern states have realized what a wealth of scenery, or great natural resources, of hidden treasures, is contained in that section of the country, and what rich returns for industry, energy and brains are revealed in the magnificent progress of the states of Montana, Idaho, Oregon and Washington. The great iron highways spanning the continent have made possible, as nothing else could, a close connection between the Atlantic and the Pacific coasts, and what has hitherto been regarded as a far away and unknown land is now within easy reach.
