189021806New York: Charles Scribner's Sons 1890. First Edition First Printing. Very Good/No Jacket. <br /> A comprehensive and laudatory Victorian travelogue documenting the 'Grand Tour' of the American West during the peak of the railroad expansion era.<br /> <br /> Written by Henry T. Finck the influential music critic for the 'New York Evening Post' this work provides a sophisticated Easterner's perspective on the natural wonders of the Pacific Coast from the burgeoning groves of Southern California to the rugged glaciers of Alaska. Finck's narrative serves as a vital primary source for the study of early Western tourism capturing the transition of the frontier into a series of 'natural show places' curated for the elite rail traveler of the late 19th century.<br /> <br /> KEY FEATURES<br /> Visuals: Illustrated with 20 full-page black-and-white photographic plates and a map documenting the primary landscapes of the Western tour.<br /> Binding: Original publisher's olive-green cloth; front board and spine elaborately decorated with black and gilt stamped topographical and floral motifs.<br /> Content: Detailed accounts of the Canadian Pacific Railroad Yellowstone the Grand Canyon and the Pacific Northwest including early descriptions of British Columbia.<br /> Imprint: New York: Charles Scribner's Sons 1890. First Edition statement.<br /> Specs: 8vo; 8 inches tall; xiv 309 pp. 21 leaves of plates.<br /> <br /> CONDITION - The bindings are tight and square maintaining a strong shelf presence. The internal text is clean with light even age-toning throughout. There is moderate shelf-handling wear to the cloth primarily at the extremities. A previous owner's inscription is present on the front free endpage. An solid unrefined example of Victorian bookmaking.<br /> <br /> SCHOLARLY FEATURES<br /> Railroad History: Provides a critical contemporary account of the Canadian Pacific Railroad's impact on regional travel and the 'Laying the Foundations' of British Columbia.<br /> Cultural Geography: Illustrates the 'warm praise' and promotional tone used by Eastern intellectuals to market the West as a sophisticated destination for health and leisure.<br /> Early Photography: The 20 plates serve as a 'visual index' of the sites deemed most significant to the 1890s traveler predating the mass-market postcard era. HISTORICAL SIGNIFICANCE -<br /> Henry T. Finck was more than a music critic; he was a 'tastemaker' of the Gilded Age. His 'Scenic Tour' was published at a moment when the completion of the major transcontinental lines allowed for a new kind of 'Armchair Travel' to become a physical reality for the American middle class.<br /> <br /> The work is particularly valued for its sections on the Pacific Northwest and Alaska which were then seen as the 'Final Frontier' of North American tourism. By linking Southern California to the Grand Canyon and Yellowstone in a single narrative Finck helped codify the 'Standard Western Loop' that would define American tourism for the next century.<br /> <br /> SUBJECTS: Western Americana Railroad Travel California History Alaska Yellowstone National Park Grand Canyon Canadian Pacific Railroad British Columbia Travel Narrative First Edition Victoriana.<br /> <br /> BIBLIOGRAPHIC REFERENCE: Smith 104; Carson 605; LOA Railroad; Univ. of Victoria p. 98.

Willard is the founder and president of Pacific Northwest Sacred Harp Singers Inc.

The name is derived from The Sacred Harp a ubiquitous and historically important tunebook printed in shape notes. The work was first published in 1844 and has reappeared in multiple editions ever since. Sacred Harp music represents one branch of an older tradition of American music that developed over the period 1770 to 1820 from roots in New England with a significant related development under the influence of "revival" services around the 1840s. This music was included in and became profoundly associated with books using the shape note style of notation popular in America in the 18th and early 19th centuries. " from Wikipedia .
