The travelogues of Mr. Burton Holmes

Description

The interesting places described in these Travelogues may be conveniently reached as follows: From New York to Chicago, the Erie Railway takes one through an attractive country. From Chicago (whence one should not fail to go over the Chicago and Afton Line to the St, Louis World’s Fair in 1904) one reaches the Grand Canyon of Arizona via the Santa Fe Railway; the Yellowstone Park via the Northern Pacific, leaving the Park if desired, via the Oregon Short Line to the Pacific Coast ; from Chicago to California, one may go over the Northwestern Line and the Southern Pacific, which maintains a rapid summer service between San Francisco and the Yosemite Valley — one night by rail and a delightful day’s drive by "Limited" stage. Alaska is most comfortably visited on the S. S. “Spokane,” one of the cruising steamers of the Pacific Coast S. S. Co., sailing from Seattle and Victoria, B. C. Foreword I. THE YOSEMITE VALLEY II.
