Lincoln Quickprint- OROCHESTER PUBLIC LIBRARY 1998 US ISSN 0035.7413 A Brief Look at the 20th Century Through the Lens of the Camera In Rochester at the turn ofthe 20th century there was little ofthe wild celebration that one might expectfor such LI mile- stone. Newspapers instead looked back on the passing century. The 21st century, however, is the beginning ofu newmillen- nium.Newspapers report apprehension in the corporate and governmental realms wheregreat dependence on computers and electronic communication has developed irreversibly. A look at Rochester’s passing century gives barely a glimpse of the developments in business and manufacture, transportation and communication, education and lifestyles, roles ofwomen and newcomers and changes in the city itself: The history of a century can seldom be written by decades, rather our histories are more often divided by events, trends, periods- they expand and contract- elastic in their impor- tance. Events ofgreat importance in their day become lost through the century until some new event lifts them out to make connections and greater understanding ofour present day. This article makes no attempt to be comprehensive-only to present a picture of where we have come from- how we got to where we are today.

  • The Red Book of Niagara
    \V Ki> SpCl 127 N836 p' THE RED BOOK OF NIAGARA A COMPREHENSIVE GUIDE TO THE Scientific, Historical and Scenic Aspects of Niagara FOR THE USE OF TRAVELLERS BY IRVING P. BISHOP, S. M., F, G. S. A, With Many Illustrations, Index and Maps BUFFALO, N. Y. THE WENBORNE-SUMNER CO. I 90 I ^S6696 coptright 1901 bt The Wenborne-Su>iner Co. Press of The Wenborne-Sumner Co. Buffalo, n. Y. Preface. For more than two hundred years the Niagara region has been the most celebrated part of America. In the earlier period of our history it was the doorway to the upper lake region and the Mississippi Valley, for the possession of which French and English and English and Colonists struggled in turn. From a scientific point of view it has presented problems which have interested almost every geol- ogist of distinction, both in America and Europe. As a scenic wonder the Cataract has probably attracted more visitors than any other single natural object in the world. It is the purpose of this handbook to enable the visitor, whether his tastes be for the scenic, the scientific or the historical, to see Niagara from his own point of view, with the minimum outlay of time and money. The book is based upon the author's personal acquaintance with this region, which for thirteen years has been his field for study and recreation. It is issued solely in the interest of travellers whose needs have been, as far as possible, anticipated and provided for. Advertisements of all kind are strictly excluded from its pages.
