A new kind of Guidebook-to-the-Past that brings America's Heritage to life again. Over 700 illustrations (paintings and photographs) show how it looked then, how it looks now (1957). Stirring, crisply-printed narrative tells what happened in the heyday of nearly 3,000 historic sites - some well known, others hidden away - in each of the 48 states. The book is divided into nine geographic sections, each abundantly illustrated with rare photoghraphs, eyewitness paintings, drawings, engravings, and sketches. Following each section is a map of the area, with descriptive listing of places-to-see - including off-beaten trac sites. A book to enjoy, to use, and to cherish for many years to come.
