Book excerpt: Excerpt from Guide to Baltimore With an Account of the Geology of Its Environs and Three Maps It has seemed to the Local Committee advisable to prepare for the use of the members of the American Institute of Mining Engineers a guide-book of Baltimore and its environs which shall serve as a suitable souvenir of their visit. Aside from the usual programme, they are therefore offered many details regarding institutions and objects of public interest, as well as of such private enterprises as may particularly attract their attention. To this matter is added a description of the geology of the surrounding region, both on account of its intrinsic variety and interest and because it affords a key to many of Baltimore's characteristics and industries. The value of this portion of the book is greatly enhanced by the colored geological maps, which have been secured through the aid of the Director of the United States Geological Survey. Many of the descriptions of the great foundations of Baltimore have been furnished by the gentlemen who stand at their heads. Aside from those whose authorship is recognized in the text, the editor would gratefully acknowledge assistance received from Mr. J. W. Tyson, Mr. J. R Bland, Mr. N. Murray, Dr. W. B. Clark, Mr. H. S. Gane, and Mr. M. J. Vea. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from A Guide to the City of Baltimore: Its Public Buildings, Places of Amusement, Commercial, Benevolent, and Religious Institutions; Churches, Hotels, Railroads, Etc;, Etc:, With Map of the City and Numerous Illustrations Almost daily persons are robbed by the various "confidence games," by lending money on checks, or bonds, or notes on prominent citizens - ostensibly because "its after bank-hours," but really because the holders want to swindle by converting something worthless into greenbacks. Beware of everything of the kind. Keep away from Gambling Dens, unless you have money to throw away. Beware of new acquaintances who manifest so much interest as to "treat" often, and are anxious to show you places and objects of interest. Look out for such accomplished sharpers. Hundreds are daily deceived and overcharged by unscrupulous Hackmen. We have published the law in reference to Hacks and Carriages among the following pages of this work. The "Rules and Regulations" should be found in every Hack, according to law, therefore make no bargain in advance. If over-charged, any policeman is bound to set the matter right. Pickpockets are found among crowds around the doors of places of amusement and railroad-cars. Be on your guard for these expert thieves, who appear like gentlemen.

Download or read book Baltimore County 1929 Classic Reprint written by Maryland Geological Survey and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2017-10-28 with total page 486 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Baltimore County, 1929 The present volume on Baltimore County is the eleventh of the series of reports dealing with the physical features of the several counties of Maryland. In it are considerations not only of the geology and mineral resources but also the physiography, soils, climate, magnetic declination, and forests. The Introduction, by Edward W. Berry, consists of an historical review of the development of knowledge concerning the physical features of Baltimore County and a bibliography of the more important maps and reports dealing with the area. It shows that the growth of knowledge has covered a long period of preliminary exploration, begin ning with the work of Captain John Smith and culminating in the refined investigations of the complicated problems of the crystalline rocks of the Piedmont. The earlier work by Tyson and others Without modern technique shows an intuitive understanding of the region of high char acter. The later modern investigations have been by a great many workers, beginning with the classic studies of the late Professor Williams and numerous studies by students at the Johns Hopkins University. The account of The Physiography of Baltimore County by Eleanora Bliss Knopf represents an exhaustive mature investigation of the surface features of the county in connection with the topographic development of the whole terrane bordering the central Atlantic coast, This report is based upon new methods of research and is not only a clear, consistent explanation of the present surface features of Baltimore County but a distinct contribution to the scientific interpretation of the origin of the various terraces and gorges of the Piedmont area extending from New Jersey southward. The Geology of the Crystalline Rocks of Baltimore County by Eleanora Bliss Knopf and Anna I. Jonas represents the results of years of study. The authors undertook this work with a knowledge of the detailed studies and general interpretation of the region by Williams, Mathews.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Neither southern nor northern, Baltimore has charted its own course through the American experience. The spires of the nation's first cathedral rose into its sky, and the first blood of the Civil War fell on its streets. Here, enslaved Frederick Douglass toiled before fleeing to freedom and Billie Holiday learned to sing. Baltimore's clippers plied the seven seas, while its pioneering railroads opened the prairie West. The city that birthed "The Star-Spangled Banner" also gave us Babe Ruth and the bottle cap. This guide navigates nearly three hundred years of colorful history--from Johns Hopkins's earnest philanthropy to the raucous camp of John Waters and from modest row houses to the marbled mansions of the Gilded Age. Let local authors Brennen Jensen and Tom Chalkley introduce you to Mencken's "ancient and solid" city--]cBack cover.
