Book excerpt: Excerpt from A Trip to the Pacific Coast by Automobile Across the Continent: Camping on the Way Every motorist with rich red blood flowing through his veins, when he has a few hours to spare, heads for the country. The great open stretches of field; the soothing murmur of breezes passing through God's Temples - the woods; the gleaming stream and expansive lake; all bathed in golden sunshine, appeals to the primitive in man, as nothing else can do. He is eternally seeking out new roads. Places he has never before seen, because the spirit of adventure predominates and down deep in his innermost heart he dreams of some day starting for the great "Golden West." Everyone is familiar with the slogan "See America First." Let me add: See our great northwest and see it from an automobile if possible. If not, see it from the platform of an observation car. There is nothing in Europe so impressive as our "Wonderland of the World." The odd, startling, beautiful things you can see in our National Parks, Yellowstone, Glacier, Mount Rainier. Yosemite, the Grand Canyon of Arizona, and the splendid Forest Reserves, cannot be duplicated anywhere in the world.

Download or read book See America First written by Marguerite Shaffer and published by Smithsonian Institution. This book was released on 2013-08-06 with total page 439 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In See America First, Marguerite Shaffer chronicles the birth of modern American tourism between 1880 and 1940, linking tourism to the simultaneous growth of national transportation systems, print media, a national market, and a middle class with money and time to spend on leisure. Focusing on the See America First slogan and idea employed at different times by railroads, guidebook publishers, Western boosters, and Good Roads advocates, she describes both the modern marketing strategies used to promote tourism and the messages of patriotism and loyalty embedded in the tourist experience. She shows how tourists as consumers participated in the search for a national identity that could assuage their anxieties about American society and culture. Generously illustrated with images from advertisements, guidebooks, and travelogues, See America First demonstrates that the promotion of tourist landscapes and the consumption of tourist experiences were central to the development of an American identity.
