From River to Sea: A Tourists' and Miners' Guide From the Missouri River to the Pacific Ocean Via Kansas, Colorado, New Mexico, Arizona and California (Classic Reprint) - Hardcover
Excerpt from From River to Sea: A Tourists' and Miners' Guide From the Missouri River to the Pacific Ocean Via Kansas, Colorado, New Mexico, Arizona and California
Broad to admit of an exhaustive treatment within the allotted space; but the space is, nevertheless, sufficient for the telling of all which the general reader cares to know or can ever remember. On this subject no single publication could be a real authority as to details. The greater portion of the country is so new, and its development is so rapid, that none but the more general geographical specifications would, for any considerable time, hold good. Wherever practicable, however, details have been given; in all cases with the greatest possible accuracy. If future editions of the book do not suffer such misfortunes as have, so far, followed this one, they will bring to the reader more of fact, more of fancy, more of art, more of everything which enters into the composition of a complete volume. Until then, with becoming modesty, this little book recommends itself simply.
