This is massive treasury of rare 19th-century photos showing scenes and vistas from all over America as they appeared during the Victorian era, from the open ranges of the Old West to the colonial landscapes of New England and New York, to the sultry backwaters of the deep South – and the many places between. In SCENIC MARVELS OF THE NEW WORLD, you will find rare city views, rural scenes, pictures of coastal beauty, national parks and monuments, scenes of work and industry, fledgling mining camps and pioneer outposts, railroad views, maritime scenes, America’s famous rivers, lakes, oceans, mountains, cliffs, waterfalls, and so much more. There are more than 300 full-page photos reproduced in this rare volume.
