Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from History of Niagara (in Part) A few words in explanation. This is not the story of Niagara now. My work for years appears to have been not to exploit the present but to try to do justice to those who have gone before, to tell of the noble work they aecom plished and of the difficulties they surmounted. It must be seen that, though' so much has been gathered, still much remains untold. For this reason I have placed the words In Part following the words History of Niagara, hoping that others may take up the work. It will be seen that much has been drawn from my papers read before Historical Societies, but by far the greater part of the book has never before appeared in print, and the same can be said of the illustrations, about fifty in number. These also are from various sources and of many styles reproductions of old miniatures, oil paintings, water colors, silhouettes, old-fashioned daguerreotypes and the modern kodak print.
