Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Guide Book to Aurora Springs, of Missouri: A Brief Description of Their Location and Surroundings
The country may be described as a succession of nar row ravines, and well wooded, high, dividing ridges, run ning in a general east and west direction, with beautiful streams of clear water winding through and cutting the ridges at right angles, forming narrow gorges, which have coursing down their sides sparkling rivulets and saucy brooks, fed by springs located on the hill sides that let themselves down to the valley below by a succession of small cascades, that are lovely in their quiet picturesque ness, without snowy peaks, yawning precipices or rocky canons. These ridges or mountains are carved through their entire length by water courses, and are serrated enough to lend a striking variety to the scenery, and charm the eye at every step.
