Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Shepp's World's Fair Photographed: Being a Collection of Original Copyrighted Photographs Authorized and Permitted by the Management of the World's Columbian Exposition
We might catalogue the nations of the earth, and, standing on the highest pinnacles of the Rocky Mountains, call the long roll in tones of thunder, and from some corner of this great land some voice would cry Herel as the name of each nation was called. At Babel, God spake the nations apart, and put strange language in their lips that they might dwell asunder. Here he has called them together again and, under the sacred flag of Liberty, made them one. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
