At this time of the year would, undoubtedly, be enjoyed by every one who reads these words, but not every one can afford such a trip. The next best thing would be a series of photo-reproductions of this world-renowned valley. These we now offer in the beautiful book, “IN THE HEART OF THE SIERRAS.” In this book are presented a large number of photo-reproductions of the wonderful valley and its marvelous surroundings.
A BRIEF DESCRIPTION
Large octavo volume of 496 pages, exclusive of photo-type illustrations, printed on heavy calendered paper; has the official topographical map of the valley. The book not only contains these features, but the glowing “word pictures” of Colonel Hutchings, a resident of the valley for nearly a quarter of a century, a talented gentleman thoroughly imbued with a sense of his sublime surroundings, faithfully describes them all. In the opening chapter of the book he says: “Yo Semite, to the poet, is the grandest of lyrics; to the artist, nature’s ever-captivating picture gallery; to the preacher, the most suggestively eloquent of sermons; and to the worshiper, the sublimest of temples.” “In the Heart of the Sierras” has already passed through four editions, and the original price was $3.75.
