Sobre este artículo
[Martinsburg]: From the "Martinsburg Statesman, 1877. [4] pp. Folded leaf. Attractive vignette of the Martinsburg Court-House on title page, small map on page [2]. Near Fine.
A rare booster pamphlet for this town of 7000, "the county seat of Berkeley County." It was printed, not only to attract business and immigrants, but also as part of a campaign to make Martinsburg the capital of West Virginia. Its natural beauty and status as the "best local market" for a variety of enterprises are trumpeted. Moreover, "It has eleven churches, white and colored, embracing nearly all of the orthodox denominations," many public buildings and "public accommodations," banks, railroad centers, the Hannis Distillery; and the streets and buildings are "lighted with gas." Its residents are "noted for energy and business enterprise."
OCLC 18552282 [2- Duke, VA Hist. Soc.] as of April 2021.
