Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book is an 1893 literary tribute to Niagara Falls, the result of collaboration between prominent American literary figures and artists of the day. Published in the wake of the great Civil War, this book is part of a literary tradition that sought to unify the disparate United States by celebrating elements of shared American culture. Within this historical context, the book provides a detailed description of the Falls themselves, as well as the natural and man-made wonders that surround them. The author's aim was to evoke the awe that Niagara Falls inspires by describing its grandeur from every conceivable angle - from above, below, and right at its base. Thematic underpinnings include America's history of industrialization, the sublime relationship between nature and the human experience, and the beauty of the natural world preserved in public ownership. 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. print-on-demand item.…
