Excerpt from An American Geological Railway Guide: Giving the Geological Formation at Every Railway Station, With Altitudes Above Mean Tide-Water, Notes on Interesting Places on the Routes, and a Description of Each of the Formations
How lonely would be a journey on which you would see not a single face that you know, and how different it would be if every one you meet were an old friend. SO to the tourist new charms must be given to scenery, however attractive it may already be, if he knows something about its geology. The rocks, mountains, valleys and plains, although he sees them for the first time, are old friends in perhaps new and interesting forms. He meets them with a certain pleasure, for he understands what he sees and he is given the materials for many a happy hour of quiet and profitable reflection at home, on what he has seen on his railway journey.
