Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from A Great City and State: The Story of Chicago and Illinois Many seasons passed and finally warm weather in the North stopped an advancing ice blanket. As the forward tip of the glacier gradually melted, it left the great lake that was to act as a divide for the waters of the region. NO man was here to witness the beginning of a young city. No man was here to see a river formed, the river that's shaped like a Y, but the fact remains that the receding river of ice left Nature's gift to us. It left your heritage and mine: a chain of lakes and a system of rivers affording natural transportation unrivalled in North America; a broad, fertile plain and a stretch Of virgin forest rich hinterland for the Red Man who was to come, for the white man who was to follow.

Download or read book Saint Louis written by L. U. Reavis and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2017-10-21 with total page 1098 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Saint Louis: The Future Great City of the World In its character and scope, the work is designed to be commensurate with, and representative of, the fame and material grandeur of St. Louis. To this end the information and the arguments have been grouped in general depart ments, and each of these has been treated with such elaboration as its importance seemed to demand. In the history of the city, the greater attention has been given to that dim traditionary period, the record of which is fragmentary, and which, there fore, requires our efforts to preserve from that decay which follows all events inscribed only in the recollection of men. The records of our later history as a city, have been too fully and voluminously kept to run the risk of oblivion, and their elaboration is left to some future historian. The statistics and facts, which set forth the present advancement of St. Louis in her material growth, have been collected with care, and are pre sented without exaggeration or any unnecessary ornament. In their simplicity they are eloquent of a present full of grandeur, and a future glowing with brighter promise than the achievements of the past can even measure. In that promise, so plainly to be read, so far on its way to fulfillment, I see the consummation of my great ambition for the city of my home, the city of my ardent hope and love.
