Marvelous works of nature and art : together with useful and interesting information for all, with plates of illustration
A popular American compendium of natural wonders and antiquities, compiled by Loring Cook and printed by T.J. Griffiths in Utica, New York, in 1873 for general household readers. Wood engravings show erupting geysers, steaming vents, canyon spires and waterfalls, built from dense hatching against pale skies, with arched and ruled frames useful as ready-made vignette borders.
