Out West On The Overland Train by Richard Reinhardt. Published by Castle Books, Secaucus, NJ, 1967. 1st Edition. Paper DJ. Folio (up to 15'' tall). Condition: Nr Fine in Torn & Taped DJ. Edge wear, cloth binding at spine top & bottom fraying, overall content excellent. 207 Pgs. LCCN 67-25255. Across-the-Continent Excursion with Leslie's Magazine in 1877 and the Overland Trip in 1967. With the original drawings from Frank Leslie's Illustrated Newspaper. For 5 months, Frank Leslie and his ''Excursion to the Pacific'' traveled by private railroad car. They stopped over in Chicago, Cheyenne, Denver, Salt Lake City, Virginia City, and San Francisco. Their story has been assembled for the first time in full book form. Here are trenchant, topical observations of the landscape, society, and commerce of the West. To add historical perspective to nostalgic Americana, the story of the 1877 trip has been coupled with and equally high-spirited account of the same journey by an American writer 90 years later. The result is a sparkling, ironic narrative of Western travel. Description text copyright 2008 BooksForComfort. Item ID 16791.
