Item description from seller

Print on Demand. This book provides a detailed account of the South Fork Fishing and Hunting Club, an exclusive retreat for the most influential industrialists in the United States during the late 19th century. Through meticulous research and analysis, the author presents a comprehensive history of the Club, from its founding in 1879 to its tragic demise in 1889 when the Club's earthen dam collapsed, precipitating the Johnstown Flood, one of the most devastating natural disasters in American history. The book not only examines the Club's role in the disaster but also explores its significance as a notable departure from the more public mountain and mineral springs resorts that had predominated the region. Architecturally, the surviving Club buildings represent a collection of Victorian cottage architecture, with the Queen Anne/Shingle Style Moorhead and Stick Style Brown Cottages being particularly fine examples of their respective styles. This book is a valuable contribution to the history of both the Johnstown Flood and the development of Victorian-era resort architecture in the United States. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format. In rare cases, an imperfection in the original, such as a blemish or missing page, may be replicated in the book.…
